Text

Any person who hears or chants these pastimes Lord MurÄri performed with His cowherd friends — the killing of AghÄsura, the taking of lunch on the forest grass, the Lord’s manifestation of transcendental forms, and the wonderful prayers offered by Lord BrahmÄ â€” is sure to achieve all his spiritual desires.

Purport

According to ÅšrÄ«la SanÄtana GosvÄmÄ«, even one who is only inclined to hear and chant the pastimes of Lord Kṛṣṇa will achieve spiritual perfection. Many devotees seriously engaged in propagating Kṛṣṇa consciousness are often so busy that they cannot chant and hear the pastimes of the Lord to their full satisfaction. However, simply by their intense desire to always chant and hear about Lord Kṛṣṇa, they will achieve spiritual perfection. Of course, as far as possible one should actually vibrate these transcendental pastimes of the Lord.
