This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it signals the completion of a chapter in the Mokṣadharma section, whose broader aim is to frame dharma in relation to liberation (mokṣa), often emphasizing renunciation, self-knowledge, and detachment.
The text is closing the chapter that dealt with the account of Śukadeva’s origin/birth. It formally marks the end of that adhyāya within the Śānti Parva’s Mokṣadharma unit.
