Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

This line functions as a colophon rather than a doctrinal verse: it signals the completion of a chapter and identifies its placement (Śānti Parva, Gokṣa-dharma section) and its topic (the dialogue between Bhṛgu and Bharadvāja).

What is happening in the narrative?

The text formally closes the chapter, summarizing that the preceding content consisted of a Bhṛgu–Bharadvāja dialogue within the Gokṣa-dharma portion of the Śānti Parva.
