KATHA
Glories of listening to Bhagwad Kathas, Sri Ram Kathas and Sri Bhaktmaal kathas are unlimited.
In Srimad Bhagwatam 2.1.10 verse
तदहं तेऽभिधास्यामि महापौरुषिको भवान् ।
यस्य श्रद्दधतामाशु स्यान्मुकुन्दे मति: सती ॥
tad ahaṁ te ’bhidhāsyāmi mahā-pauruṣiko bhavān
yasya śraddadhatām āśu syān mukunde matiḥ satī
Sri Sukhdev Goswami states “That very Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam I shall recite before you because you are the most sincere devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa. One who gives full attention and respect to hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam achieves unflinching faith in the Supreme Lord, the giver of salvation.”
In Srimad Bhagwatam 2.8.3 verse
कथयस्व महाभाग यथाहमखिलात्मनि ।
कृष्णे निवेश्य नि:सङ्गं मनस्त्यक्ष्ये कलेवरम् ॥
kathayasva mahābhāga yathāham akhilātmani
kṛṣṇe niveśya niḥsaṅgaṁ manas tyakṣye kalevaram
Mahārāja Parīkṣit requests Sri Sukhdev Goswami as follows “O greatly fortunate Śukadeva Gosvāmī, please continue narrating Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam so that I can place my mind upon the Supreme Soul, Lord Kṛṣṇa, and, being completely freed from material qualities, thus relinquish this body.”
Hearing the Glories of the Supreme Lord purifies the heart of every soul and helps a soul concentrate on the path of Bhakti.
In Srimad Bhagwatam 2.8.3 verse
शृण्वत: श्रद्धया नित्यं गृणतश्च स्वचेष्टितम् ।
कालेन नातिदीर्घेण भगवान् विशते हृदि ॥
śṛṇvataḥ śraddhayā nityaṁ gṛṇataś ca sva-ceṣṭitam
kālena nātidīrgheṇa bhagavān viśate hṛdi
It is stated “Persons who hear Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam regularly and are always taking the matter very seriously will have the Personality of Godhead Śrī Kṛṣṇa manifested in their hearts within a short time.”
