Educational Q&A

This line is a colophon marking the close of a chapter; it frames the surrounding discourse as instruction on dharma—especially right conduct during adversity (āpaddharma), with emphasis here on bodily behavior and discipline.

The text signals the end of the 135th chapter within the Śānti Parva’s Āpaddharma section. It functions as an editorial closure rather than a spoken verse advancing the story.
