iti prakāraṁ śrīmahābhārata-śāntiparva-ke antargata gokṣadharmaparva-meṁ ujjhavṛttikā-upākhyāna-viṣayaka trī-śata tri-saṣṭitamaḥ adhyāyaḥ pūrṇaḥ abhavat
Sa gayon nagwakas ang ika-363 kabanata ng Śānti Parva ng Śrī Mahābhārata, sa loob ng bahaging tinatawag na Gokṣa-dharma Parva, na tumatalakay sa salaysay na pang-episodyo (upākhyāna) tungkol kay Ujjhavṛttikā. Ang kolopon na ito ang tanda ng pagwawakas ng yunit at hudyat ng paglipat sa susunod na daloy ng mga aral ukol sa dharma sa Śānti Parva.

Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: its purpose is to mark the completion of a chapter and to situate it within the Śānti Parva’s dharma-oriented instruction, specifically the Ujjhavṛttikā illustrative tale within the Gokṣadharma section.
The text signals closure: it announces that the chapter dealing with the Ujjhavṛttikā upākhyāna has concluded within the Śānti Parva, preparing the reader for the next chapter or thematic unit.
