Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a teaching verse: it formally closes the chapter and situates it within Śānti Parva’s Mokṣadharma section, whose broader concern is dharma oriented toward liberation (mokṣa), often emphasizing restraint, simplicity, and ethical living.

What is happening in the narrative?

The text is marking the end of an episode titled “Ucchavṛtti-upākhyāna” and identifying it as the 358th chapter within the Mokṣadharma portion of Śānti Parva in the Mahābhārata.
