The learned man, by reciting in others this Veda or Agama composed by (the Island-born) Krishna, acquires wealth. There is no doubt in this that he who, with rapt attention, recites this history called Bharata, acquires great success.
कार्यों वेदमिमं विद्वाश्रावयित्वार्थमश्नुते। इदं भारतमाख्यानं यः पठेत् सुसमाहितः। स गच्छेत् परमां सिद्धिमिति मे नास्ति संशयः॥
