Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon rather than a teaching verse: it signals that the chapter’s instruction on dharma was delivered through an upākhyāna (illustrative tale) associated with Ujjhavṛttikā, and it formally closes that unit within the Śānti Parva’s ethical discourse.

What is happening in the narrative?

No new narrative action occurs here. The text is marking the end of a chapter—identifying its placement (Śānti Parva, within Gokṣa-dharma Parva) and its subject matter (the upākhyāna concerning Ujjhavṛttikā).
