Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line is a colophon marking the completion of a chapter; it does not add new doctrine itself, but situates the preceding teaching as part of the Rājadharma (royal duty) instruction within Śānti Parva, specifically the discourse known as the Ṛṣabha-gītā.

What is happening in the narrative?

The text signals closure: the chapter on the Ṛṣabha-gītā topic has concluded within the Śānti Parva’s Rājadharmānuśāsana section, functioning as an editorial/end-of-chapter marker rather than spoken dialogue content.
