Shloka 161
इन्द्रस्य पाण्डवैः समागमः
Indra’s Meeting with the Pāṇḍavas
इति श्रीमहाभारते वनपर्वणि यक्षयुद्धपर्वणि कुबेरदर्शने एकषष्ट्यधिकशततमो< ध्याय:,इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत वनपर्वके अन्तर्गत यक्षयुद्धपर्वमें कुबेरदर्शनविषयक एक सौ इकसठवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti śrīmahābhārate vanaparvaṇi yakṣayuddhaparvaṇi kuberadārśane ekaṣaṣṭyadhikaśatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ |
Kaya nga, sa Śrī Mahābhārata, sa loob ng Vana Parva, sa bahaging tumatalakay sa digmaan laban sa mga Yakṣa, ang kabanatang hinggil sa pagtanaw kay Kubera—ang ika-isang daan at animnapu’t isa—ay nagwawakas. Ang kolopon na ito ang tanda ng pagtatapos ng pangyayaring iyon, at hudyat ng paglipat mula sa tunggalian laban sa mga nilalang na makalangit tungo sa aral na moral at espirituwal ng pakikipagtagpo kay Kubera, panginoon ng kayamanan at tagapagbantay ng hilagang dako.

Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not present a direct doctrinal teaching; its ethical function is structural: it closes an episode of confrontation with Yakṣas and frames the subsequent significance of Kubera’s appearance—suggesting that encounters with divine powers (including wealth and authority) are to be understood within dharmic order and narrative consequence rather than mere spectacle.
This is the formal closing line of the chapter: it states that, within Vana Parva and the Yakṣa-battle episode, the chapter dealing with the vision/meeting of Kubera has concluded, identifying it as the 161st chapter.
