Educational Q&A
The colophon signals that the chapter’s instruction concerns vivāha-dharma (marital duty) and the ethical-social consequences associated with varṇa-saṅkara, emphasizing that marriage conduct is treated as a dharmic matter with wider societal implications.
This line is a concluding colophon: it marks the completion of the forty-eighth chapter in the Anuśāsana Parva’s Dāna-dharma section, noting that the chapter’s topic was the description of the origin of varṇa-saṅkara in the context of marriage duties.
