于是,在《圣摩诃婆罗多》阿奴沙娑那篇中,尤于“施舍之法”之部,题为《伞盖与鞋履之起源》的第九十五章告终。
भीष्म उवाच
This line functions as a colophon marking the close of a chapter within the teachings on dāna-dharma (the ethics of giving). By naming the chapter’s theme—“the origin of the umbrella and footwear”—it frames everyday protective items as part of a moral discourse on gifts, care, and social duty.
The text is concluding a chapter: it formally states the work (Mahābhārata), the larger book (Anuśāsana Parva), the internal section (Dāna-dharma Parva), and the chapter title and number (95th, ‘Chatra-upānah-utpatti’). It is a structural closing formula rather than a new spoken instruction.
