Nāgendra–Brāhmaṇa Saṃvāda: Praśna-vidhi and Dharmic Approach on the Gomatī Riverbank
यो होतद् ब्राह्मणो नित्यं शृणुयाद् धारयीत वा । न तस्याध्ययनं नाशमुपगच्छेत् कदाचन,जो ब्राह्मण प्रतेदिन इस अवतार-कथाको सुनता या स्मरण करता है, उसका अध्ययन कभी नष्ट (निष्फल) नहीं होता है
yo hotad brāhmaṇo nityaṁ śṛṇuyād dhārayīta vā | na tasyādhyayanaṁ nāśam upagacchet kadācana ||
যে ব্রাহ্মণ নিত্য এই কাহিনি শোনে বা স্মৃতিতে ধারণ করে, তার অধ্যয়ন কখনও নষ্ট হয় না, কখনও নিষ্ফলও হয় না।

Educational Q&A
Regular listening to, or memorizing, a sacred narrative preserves one’s learning: sincere śravaṇa (hearing) and dhāraṇa (retention) ensure that adhyayana (study/recitation) does not become wasted or lost.
The narrator Vaiśaṃpāyana states a phalaśruti (statement of benefits), declaring the spiritual and educational fruit of hearing or remembering the account—especially for a brāhmaṇa devoted to study.
