Shloka 121
सर्वप्रहरणायुध ३० नम इति यहाँ हजार नामोंकी समाप्ति दिखलानेके लिये अन्तिम नामको दुबारा लिखा गया है। मंगलवाची होनेसे ३7कारका स्मरण किया गया है। अन्तमें नमस्कार करके भगवान्की पूजा की गयी है। इतीदं कीर्तनीयस्य केशवस्यथ महात्मन: । नाम्नां सहस्रं दिव्यानामशेषेण प्रकीर्तितम्
itīdaṃ kīrtanīyasya keśavasyātha mahātmanaḥ | nāmnāṃ sahasraṃ divyānām aśeṣeṇa prakīrtitam ||
Wika ni Bhīṣma: Sa ganitong paraan, ang ganap na isang libong banal na pangalan ni Keshava, ang dakilang-kalooban—na karapat-dapat awitin at alalahanin—ay naipahayag nang buo. Dito nagwawakas sa mapalad na pagtatapos ang sagradong pagbigkas, at ang Panginoon ay pinararangalan sa taimtim na pagpupugay.

The verse emphasizes the religious and ethical value of kīrtana—devotional recitation of the Lord’s names—as a complete and auspicious act. It frames remembrance and praise of Keshava as a dharmic practice that culminates in reverent surrender (namaskāra).
Bhishma formally concludes the recitation of the thousand divine names of Keshava. The statement functions as a colophon: it signals that the sahasranāma has been fully delivered and closes the hymn with an auspicious, worshipful tone.
