Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is not a doctrinal teaching but a colophon: it signals the completion of a chapter and identifies its placement (Udyoga Parva → Bhagavad-yāna Parva) and its topic (Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s discourse).

What is happening in the narrative?

The narrative unit focused on Kṛṣṇa’s words within the Bhagavad-yāna episode has reached a formal close; the text marks the end of the chapter for recitation and manuscript organization.
