इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत आश्वमेधिकपरववके अन्तर्गत अनुगीतापर्वरमें अजुनका प्रत्यागगनविषयक सतासीवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ

如是，在神圣的《摩诃婆罗多》中，于《马祭篇》（Āśvamedhika Parva）之《阿努歌谛》（Anugītā）部分，关于阿周那归来的第八十七章至此终了。此为卷末题记（colophon），标示一段叙事的收束，并将该事件置于战后重建的伦理框架之中：在浩劫之后，王权回归达摩（dharma），以正法重整天下。

Educational Q&A
This verse is a colophon rather than a doctrinal statement: it emphasizes textual closure and context—placing Arjuna’s return within the Āśvamedhika Parva and the Anugītā section, which broadly frames post-war life as a return to dharma, restraint, and responsible kingship.
The text signals the completion of a chapter focused on Arjuna’s return. It functions as an editorial marker that the relevant adhyāya has ended within the larger structure of the Mahābhārata’s Āśvamedhika Parva.
