Drupada’s Putrakāmeṣṭi: The Sacrificial Birth of Dhṛṣṭadyumna and Kṛṣṇā

至此,在《圣摩诃婆罗多》之《阿底篇》中——尤指“诛杀希底摩婆”与“迦托特迦诞生”一段——第一百五十四章告终。此结语标明一段叙事的收束:对弱者的护持,以及暴虐之类所招致的果报,皆被置于史诗宏大的法(Dharma)之秩序中加以昭示。

Educational Q&A

As a colophon, the verse primarily signals completion, but it also frames the preceding episode within dharma: the removal of a predatory threat (Hiḍimba) and the consequential birth of Ghaṭotkaca, reminding readers that actions in the epic generate enduring moral and narrative outcomes.

The chapter concludes. The text identifies the larger work (Mahābhārata), the book (Ādi Parva), the sub-section (Hiḍimba’s slaying), and the topic thread (Ghaṭotkaca’s birth), and then states that this is the 154th chapter.
