I have thus repeated the most sacred narrative, by hearing which one is freed
from the bonds of worldly existence and comes to have devotion to the lotus-feet of
the All-merciful ›r∂ Råma, who is a wish-yielding tree to the suppliant. Again, they who
listen to this narrative attentively are absolved of sins committed with the mind, speech
or body. Pilgrimages to sacred places and other means of self-purification, perfection
in Yoga (mind-control), dispassion and wisdom, sacred rites and religious practices,
vows and charitable acts of various kinds, self-denial and self-control, Japa (muttering
of prayers) and austere penance, performing manifold sacrifices, compassion to all living
beings, ministering to the Bråhmaƒas and oneís preceptor, learning, modesty, right
judgment and nobility of mind and character, in short, all the expedients extolled in
the Vedas, Bhavån∂, have but one rewardóDevotion to ›r∂ Hari. Such devotion to the
Lord of the Raghus as has been glorified in the Vedas is attained to by some rare
soul by the grace of ›r∂ Råma Himself. (1ó4)

Do.: muni durlabha hari bhagati nara påvahiÚ binahiÚ prayåsa,
je yaha kathå nira≈tara sunahiÚ måni bisvåsa.126.
Although such devotion to ›r∂ Hari is scarce attainable even by the sages, it can
be easily attained by men who constantly listen to this story with faith. (126)
