श्रद्धावाननसूयश्च शृणुयादपि यो नरः
सोऽपि मुक्तः शुभाँल्लोकान् प्राप्नुयात् पुण्यकर्मणाम्
॥ 18.71 ॥
śraddhāvānanasūyaśca śṛṇuyādapi yo naraḥ
so'pi muktaḥ śubhām̐llokān prāpnuyāt puṇyakarmaṇām
Translation
"And the person who even listens to it with faith and without a fault-finding attitude — they too, liberated, attain the auspicious worlds of those of virtuous deeds."
Interpretation
Shankaracharya. api śabdāt kimuta arthajñānavān — from "even": what then to say of one who knows its meaning.
Acharya Ramanuja. śravaṇamātreṇa — by listening alone; puṇyakarmaṇāṃ madbhaktānāṃ lokān samūhān — the communities of virtuous devotees.
