 Those who are desirous of achieving complete perfection in life should submissively hear all topics connected with the transcendental activities and qualities of Krsna, for this will open the path to a life of eternal bliss and knowledge. TRANSLATION
Those who are desirous of achieving complete perfection in life must submissively hear all topics that are connected with the transcendental activities and qualities of the Personality of Godhead, who acts wonderfully.
PURPORT
The systematic hearing of the transcendental activities, qualities and names of Lord Sri Krsna pushes one towards eternal life. Systematic hearing means knowing Him gradually in truth and fact, and this knowing Him in truth and fact means attaining eternal life, as stated in the Bhagavad-gita. Such transcendental, glorified activities of Lord Sri Krsna are the prescribed remedy for counteracting the process of birth, death, old age and disease, which are considered to be material awards for the conditioned living being. The culmination of such a perfectional stage of life is the goal of human life and the attainment of transcendental bliss.
