如是，在《圣摩诃婆罗多》之《寂静篇》（Śānti Parvan）中，尤以论困厄之法的《困厄法篇》（Āpaddharma Parvan）而言，第一百三十六章至此告终。

Educational Q&A
This line is a colophon marking the close of a chapter and locating it within the epic’s structure (Śānti Parvan → Āpaddharma section). It does not add a new doctrinal teaching, but it frames the preceding instruction as guidance on dharma under distress.
The text signals that the 136th chapter of the Āpaddharma portion within Śānti Parvan has ended. In the broader narrative, Bhīṣma’s extended instruction to Yudhiṣṭhira continues across chapters; this verse functions as an editorial/structural closure.
