iti śrīmahābhārate anuśāsanaparvaṇi dānadharmaparvaṇi arundhatī-citragupta-rahasye triṃśay-adhika-śatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ
Sa gayon nagwakas, sa Śrī Mahābhārata, sa loob ng Anuśāsana Parva—sa bahaging tumatalakay sa dharma ng pagbibigay—ang kabanatang pinamagatang “Ang Lihim hinggil kina Arundhatī at Citragupta,” na siyang ika-isang daan at tatlumpung kabanata.

Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it frames the teaching context by locating the discourse within the Mahābhārata’s Anuśāsana Parvan and the dāna-dharma (ethics of giving) section, reminding the reader that moral action—especially generosity—belongs to a larger system of dharma and accountability.
The speaker label indicates Yama has been speaking, and this sentence marks the formal close of a chapter titled “Arundhatī–Citragupta Secret” within the dāna-dharma portion of Anuśāsana Parvan, identifying it as the 130th chapter.
