Svargārohaṇa-parva Adhyāya 5 — Karmaphala-Nirdeśa and Phalāśruti (कर्मफलनिर्देशः फलश्रुतिश्च)
यश्नेदं श्रावयेद् विद्वान् सदा पर्वणि पर्वणि । धूतपाप्मा जितस्वर्गो ब्रह्म भूयाय कल्पते
Whoever is learned and continually recites this, making it heard by others—parva after parva—has all sin washed away; he gains rightful access to heaven and becomes fit to attain the state of Brahman.
