Shloka 146
Adhyāya 152 — Bhīṣma’s Authorization for Yudhiṣṭhira’s Return to the Capital (नगरप्रवेशानुज्ञा)
इति श्रीमहाभारते अनुशासनपर्वणि दानधर्मपर्वणि उमामहेश्वरसंवादे स्त्रीधर्मक थने षट्चत्वारिंशदधिकशततमो< ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate anuśāsanaparvaṇi dānadharmaparvaṇi umāmaheśvarasaṃvāde strīdharma-kathane ṣaṭcatvāriṃśad-adhika-śatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ |
Kaya nga, sa Śrī Mahābhārata, sa loob ng Anuśāsana Parva—lalo na sa bahaging tumatalakay sa dharma ng pagbibigay—sa pag-uusap nina Umā at Maheśvara, nagwakas ang kabanatang nagsasalaysay ng mga tungkulin at wastong asal ng kababaihan: ito ang ika-isang daan at apatnapu’t anim na kabanata. (Ang talatang ito ay panandang pangwakas ng kabanata, hindi pagpapatuloy ng salaysay.)

Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon: it does not add a new teaching but signals that the instructional discussion—framed as the Umā–Maheśvara dialogue and focused on strīdharma within the broader dāna-dharma context—has concluded for this chapter.
Bhīṣma’s discourse (as transmitted in the Anuśāsana Parva) reaches a formal chapter-end marker, identifying the textual location: Anuśāsana Parva → Dāna-dharma section → Umā–Maheśvara dialogue → exposition on strīdharma; the 146th chapter is declared complete.
