Như vậy, trong Śrī Mahābhārata, thuộc Śānti Parva—đặc biệt trong Rājadharmānuśāsana (Giáo huấn về vương pháp)—chương nói về cách xử sự của một vị vua khao khát chiến thắng đã kết thúc.

Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon marking the completion of a teaching unit: the pursuit of victory by a ruler must be governed by rājadharma—ethical restraint, proper conduct, and disciplined governance—rather than mere ambition.
The text signals the end of a chapter within the Śānti Parva’s Rājadharma instruction. Bhīṣma’s discourse (as the overarching speaker in this section) has concluded for this chapter, and the compilation notes its completion.
