The list of a hundred sub-books closes with what crowns the whole epic. After the tales of war come the great teachings on dharma: the Shanti-parva (royal duty), the Apaddharma, and above all the Mokshadharma-parva — the duty of liberation, and the Anugita — "the exposition of spiritual knowledge" (adhyātma-vācaka). Thus the Mahabharata leads from deeds toward the highest goal — liberation and devotion. And everything is crowned by the Harivamsha — a "supplement" that directly glorifies Hari, the deeds of Lord Krishna. This is deeply significant: the whole immense epic flows, as it were, into the glorification of the Lord, for Hari is both the source and the goal of all things. Thus the very structure of the Mahabharata proclaims: knowledge of dharma and of liberation is crowned by love for the Supreme.
