Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon: it signals that the chapter’s instruction belongs to the Mahābhārata’s ethical discourse on dāna-dharma (the duty and value of giving), framed through a Brahmā–Indra dialogue and transmitted under Bhīṣma’s authoritative voice.
The text is closing the unit: it announces that the seventy-third chapter—whose subject is the dialogue between Brahmā and Indra within the Dāna-dharma section of the Anuśāsana Parva—has been completed.
