Transliteration

iti śrīmahābhārate śāntiparvaṇi rājadharmānuśāsanaparvaṇi triṃśādhikaśatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ |

Translation

Như vậy, trong Śrī Mahābhārata, thuộc Śānti Parva—đặc biệt ở phần Rājadharmānuśāsana (Giáo huấn về bổn phận của bậc vương giả)—chương thứ một trăm ba mươi kết thúc. Đây là lời kết (colophon) đánh dấu việc khép lại một đơn vị trong lời khuyên dạy của Bhīṣma về vương đạo và dharma, chứ không phải là một diễn biến truyện mới.

Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon: it does not introduce a new teaching but marks the completion of a chapter within Bhīṣma’s instruction on rājadharma (the ethical duties and governance principles of a king).

What is happening in the narrative?

No new event occurs here; the text formally closes the chapter, situating it within the Śānti Parva and the Rājadharmānuśāsana section of the Mahābhārata.
