Educational Q&A
This line functions as a colophon: it frames the preceding discourse as instruction on rājadharma (the ethical duties of kings) delivered in the form of a dialogue between Vāsudeva and the sage Nārada, emphasizing governance grounded in dharma and disciplined counsel.
The chapter concludes: the text identifies the larger work (Mahābhārata), the book (Śānti Parva), the subsection on royal instruction (Rājadharmānuśāsana), and names this unit as the eighty-first chapter titled “Vāsudeva–Nārada Dialogue.”
