Translation
Anyone who hears with faith even a little this sweet knowledge which is firmly supported by bhakti and was spoken by Kṛṣṇa, whose feet are served by masters of yoga, attains liberation. The whole world becomes liberated by that person’s association. Anyone who hears with genuine faith a little of this nectar of knowledge spoken by the Lord, completely supported by bhakti-yoga, an ocean of bliss, becomes liberated. And even more, by his association, the whole universe becomes liberated.
Lord Kṛṣṇa, served by yoga masters, spoke this nectarean knowledge — the entire ocean of spiritual bliss; anyone in the universe receiving it with great faith is assured of liberation. The whole text is offered as liberation insurance.
