Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it marks the completion of a chapter whose subject is the Ṛṣabha-gītā within the instruction on rāja-dharma. Its implied pedagogical function is to frame the preceding material as authoritative guidance on ethical governance and disciplined conduct.
The text signals closure: the compiler/editor announces that the 127th chapter on the Ṛṣabha-gītā, situated inside Śānti Parva’s rāja-dharma instruction section, has ended—within the broader setting of Bhīṣma’s counsel.
