He, who, having uttered the words-'I bow to the holy Lord',-frequently listens, with rapt attention, to this discourse or reads or recites it to others, becomes gifted with intelligence and health, and possessed of beauty and strength If ill, he becomes freed from that illness; if fettered, freed from his bonds. The man who has desires gets (by this) the fruition of all his desires, and easily acquires a long life also.
यश्चेदं शृणुयान्नित्यं यश्चैनं परिकीर्तयेत्। नमो भगवते कृत्वा समाहितमतिर्नरः॥ भवत्यरोगो मतिमान् बलरूपसमन्वितः। आतुरो मुच्यते रोगाद् बद्धो मुच्येत बन्धनात्॥ कामान् कामी लभेत् कामं दीर्घ चायुरवाप्नुयात्।
