Vipulopākhyāna—Ruci-rakṣā and Śakra’s Māyā (विपुलोपाख्यानम्—रुचिरक्षणं शक्रमाया च)
इति श्रीमहाभारते अनुशासनपर्वणि दानधर्मपर्वणि पात्रपरीक्षायां सप्तत्रिंशो ध्याय:,इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत अनुशासनपर्वके अन्तर्गत दानधर्मपर्वमें पात्रकी परीक्षाविषयक सैंतीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
iti śrīmahābhārate anuśāsanaparvaṇi dānadharmaparvaṇi pātraparīkṣāyāṃ saptatriṃśo 'dhyāyaḥ
如是,在《圣摩诃婆罗多》中,于《阿努沙萨那篇》(Anuśāsana Parvan)之内——尤在论施舍之法(布施之法)的章节中——关于甄别堪受施者的第三十七章至此终了。此结语(章末题记)标明本段落圆满完成,并昭示:唯有将施舍施与真正当受之人,慈施方能结成合乎正法的果报。

The colophon highlights the ethical principle that giving (dāna) is not merely an act of generosity but a dharmic practice whose value depends greatly on the worthiness (pātratā) of the recipient; hence the need for ‘pātraparīkṣā’, careful discernment in charity.
This line is a concluding colophon stating that a chapter has ended: within the Anuśāsana Parvan’s discourse on the dharma of giving, the unit dealing with ‘examining the recipient’ is completed (the thirty-seventh chapter of that thematic sequence).
