श्रीशुक उवाच एतच्छ्रुत्वा महाभागो वसुदेवोऽतिविस्मित: । देवकी च महाभागा जहतुर्मोहमात्मन: ॥ ५१ ॥

They were overwhelmed upon hearing profound spiritual instruction, and that realization caused their internal confusion to fall away.
Regularly hearing authentic Bhagavatam teachings from a genuine source can reduce mental confusion and strengthen spiritual conviction.
