Anyone who once meditates upon Me with faith and affection, who hears and chants about Me, surely goes back home, back to Godhead.

Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

O mother! That person who hears this topic once with faith, or who utters this topic, concentrating his mind on me, certainly attains the place where my feet rest. What to speak of the good fortune for the performers of these actions, hear about the good fortune that arises just from hearing and chanting about this topic. Fixing his mind on me (mat-cittaḥ), he attains the place where my feet rest (padavīm).
