Udyoga Parva Adhyāya 132 — Vidura’s Counsel on Udyama, Yaśas, and Kṣātra-Dharma
इति श्रीमहा भारते उद्योगपर्वणि भगवद्यानपर्वणि विदुलापुत्रानुशासने त्रयस्त्रिंशयदधिकशततमो< ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate udyogaparvaṇi bhagavadyānaparvaṇi vidulāputrānuśāsane trayastriṁśad-adhikaśatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ |
Sa gayon nagwawakas, sa Mahābhārata, sa Udyoga Parva, sa loob ng bahaging tinatawag na Bhagavad-yāna Parva, ang ika-isang daan at tatlumpu’t tatlong kabanata na pinamagatang “Pagtuturo ni Vidulā sa Kaniyang Anak.” Ang pangwakas na kolofon na ito ang nagtatak ng pagkapuno ng aral-etika ni Vidulā, at inilalagay ang kaniyang payo bilang pormal na turo tungkol sa tungkulin, matatag na pasya, at wastong asal sa gitna ng krisis pampulitika.

Educational Q&A
The colophon signals that the chapter’s core is Vidulā’s disciplined instruction to her son—an ethical and practical exhortation emphasizing steadfastness, self-respect, and purposeful action in the face of adversity, framed within dharma and the responsibilities of leadership.
This is the formal closing statement of the chapter: it locates the episode within the Udyoga Parva and the Bhagavad-yāna Parva, and declares that the chapter titled “Vidulā’s Instruction to Her Son” has concluded.
