iti śrīmahābhārate udyogaparvaṇi bhagavadyānaparvaṇi śrīkṛṣṇavākye pañcāśad-adhika-śatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ
یوں شری مہابھارت کے اُدیोग پَرو میں، بھگودْیان پَرو کے اندر، شری کرشن کے کلام پر مشتمل ایک سو پچاسویں ادھیائے کا اختتام ہوا۔

This line itself is not a doctrinal verse but a colophon. Its ‘teaching’ is structural: it frames the preceding content as Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s counsel within his peace-embassy, highlighting that ethical persuasion and dharmic negotiation are central themes before the outbreak of war.
The chapter concludes. The colophon locates the episode in the Udyoga Parva’s Bhagavad-yāna section, where Kṛṣṇa undertakes a diplomatic mission and speaks to guide the parties toward a just settlement, even as conflict approaches.
