2.49

Furthermore, the Nirvāṇa-sūtra says: If there are good men or good women who hear the name of this scripture and are born into the four evil destinies, there is no such possibility. If any sentient beings have it pass through their ears but once, they will be entirely able to eradicate all evil karmic deeds of the uninterrupted hell. It also says: If any sentient beings have it pass through their ears but once, for seven kalpas thereafter they will not fall into evil destinies. It also says: If someone can know that the Tathāgata is eternally abiding without change, or hears the sound of the two words 'eternally abiding' passing through their ears but once, they will immediately be born in the heavens; later, at the time of liberation, they will then be able to realize and know that the Tathāgata is eternally abiding without change.
