TRANSLATION
My dear Vidura, one who hears this narration concerning the understanding of the living entitys spiritual existence, as described by the great sage Narada, or who relates it to others, will be liberated from the bodily conception of life.
PURPORT
This material creation is the spirit souls dream. Actually all existence in the material world is a dream of Maha-Visnu, as the Brahma-samhita describes:
This material world is created by the dreaming of Maha-Visnu. The real, factual platform is the spiritual world, but when the spirit soul wants to imitate the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is put into this dreamland of material creation. After being in contact with the material modes of nature, the living entity develops the subtle and gross bodies. When the living entity is fortunate enough to associate with Sri Narada Mahamuni or his servants, he is liberated from this dreamland of material creation and the bodily conception of life.
