FAQs
It is a standard Purāṇic colophon (chapter-ending formula) indicating the closure of Adhyaya 34 within the Svargakhaṇḍa of the Padma Purāṇa, rather than a narrative statement.
No character is speaking; it functions as a narratorial/editorial closure line traditionally appended at the end of a chapter.
It primarily establishes textual structure and location (Padma Purāṇa → Svargakhaṇḍa → Chapter 34). The theological content lies in the preceding verses; this line helps archival citation and accurate referencing.
