Như vậy, trong Śrī Mahābhārata, thuộc Śānti Parvan—cụ thể là phần Mokṣa-dharma, trong Nārāyaṇīya—chương thứ ba trăm bốn mươi đã kết thúc. Dòng kết (colophon) này ghi nhận sự hoàn mãn của lời thuyết giảng tán dương đại uy đức của Nārāyaṇa trong khuôn khổ giáo pháp về giải thoát và dharma.

Educational Q&A

As a colophon, the verse does not add new doctrine; it frames the teaching context: liberation-oriented dharma (mokṣa-dharma) is presented alongside devotion and theological praise of Nārāyaṇa, implying that knowledge of dharma and the path to release are integrated with reverence for the supreme divine principle.

The speaker-marker and closing formula indicate the end of a chapter within the Śānti Parva’s Mokṣa-dharma section, specifically the Nārāyaṇīya portion. It functions as an editorial/narrative closure rather than an event within the story.
