如是,在《圣摩诃婆罗多》之《德罗那篇》中——尤在“诛杀阇耶陀罗”一段——以萨底耶吉入阵为题的第一百二十一章至此告终。作为卷末题记,它标示战事叙述的转折:一段行动单元既已收束,而随后的事件将携带复仇、职责(dharma)与战争代价日益加重的道德重量,步步逼近。

As a colophon rather than a didactic verse, it teaches indirectly: actions in war are organized into accountable narrative units, and each completed episode carries ethical residue—duty pursued through violence (especially vengeance-driven duty) advances the plot but also deepens the moral gravity of the conflict.
This line marks the formal close of a chapter in the Droṇa Parva, within the Jayadratha-slaying sequence, identifying the chapter’s focus as Sātyaki’s entry/advance. It functions as an editorial/narrative boundary rather than describing a new action.
