6.8.12

parāśara uvāca:
etat te yan mayākhyātaṃ purāṇaṃ vedasaṃmitam
śrute 'smin sarvadoṣotthaḥ pāparāśiḥ praṇaśyati //

PARÁŚARA.--I have related to you this Puráńa, which is equal to the Vedas in sanctity, and by hearing which all faults and sins whatever are expiated. In this have been described to you the primary and secondary creation, the families of the patriarchs, the Manwantaras, the regal dynasties; the gods, Daityas, Gandharbas, serpents, Rákshasas, Yakshas, Vidyádharas, Siddhas, and heavenly nymphs; Munis endowed with spiritual wisdom, and practisers of devotion; the distinctions of the four castes, and the actions of the most eminent amongst men; holy places on the earth, holy rivers and oceans, sacred mountains, and legends of the truly wise; the duties of the different tribes, and the observances enjoined by the Vedas. By hearing this, all sins are at once obliterated. In this also the glorious Hari has been revealed, the cause of the creation, preservation, and destruction of the world; the soul of all things, and himself all things: by the repetition of whose name man is undoubtedly liberated from all sins, which fly like wolves that are frightened by a lion. The repetition of his name with devout faith is the best remover of all sins, destroying them as fire purifies the metal from the dross. The stain of the Kali age, which ensures to men sharp punishments in hell, is at once effaced by a single invocation of Hari.

sargaś ca pratisargaś ca vaṃśo manvantarāṇi ca

6.8.14

atra devās tathā daityā gandharvoragarākṣasāḥ
yakṣā vidyādharāḥ siddhāḥ kathyante 'psarasas tathā //

6.8.15

munayo bhāvitātmānaḥ kathyante tapasānvitāḥ
cāturvarṇyaṃ tathā puṃsāṃ viśiṣṭacaritā narāḥ //

6.8.16

puṇyāḥ pradeśā medinyāḥ puṇyā nadyo 'tha sāgarāḥ
parvatāś ca mahāpuṇyāś caritāni ca dhīmatām //

6.8.17

varṇadharmādayo dharmā vedaśākhāś ca kṛtsnaśaḥ
yeṣāṃ saṃśravaṇāt sadyaḥ sarvapāpaiḥ pramucyate //

6.8.18

utpattisthitināśānāṃ hetur yo jagato 'vyayaḥ
sa sarvabhūtaḥ sarvātmā kathyate bhagavān hariḥ //

6.8.19

avaśenāpi yan nāmni kīrtite sarvapātakaiḥ //

6.8.20

yan nāmakīrtanaṃ bhaktyā vilāyanam anuttamam
maitreyāśeṣapāpānāṃ dhātūnām iva pāvakaḥ //

6.8.21

6.8.22

hiraṇyagarbhadevendrarudrādityāśvivāyubhiḥ
pāvakair vasubhiḥ sādhyair viśvedevādibhiḥ suraiḥ //

He who is all that is, the whole egg of Brahmá, with Hirańyagarbha, Indra, Rudra, the Ádityas, the Aswins, the winds, the Kinnaras, the Vasus, the Sádhyas, Viśwadevas, the celestial gods, the Yakshas, serpents, Rákshasas, the Siddhas, Daityas, Gandharbas, Dánavas, nymphs, the stars, asterisms, planets, the seven Rishis, the regents and superintendants of the quarters, men, Brahmans and the rest, animals tame and wild, insects, birds, ghosts and goblins, trees, mountains, woods, rivers, oceans, the subterrene legions, the divisions of the earth, and all perceptible objects--he who is all things, who knoweth all things, who is the form of all things, being without form himself, and of whom whatever is, from mount Meru to an atom, all consists--he, the glorious Vishńu, the destroyer of all sin--is described in this Puráńa. By hearing this Puráńa an equal recompense is obtained to that which is derived from the performance of an Aśwamedha sacrifice, or from fasting at the holy places Prayága, Pushkara, Kurukshetra, or Arbuda. Hearing this Puráńa but once is as efficacious as the offering of oblations in a perpetual fire for a year. The man who with well-governed passions bathes at Mathurá on the twelfth day of the month Jyesht́ha, and beholds (the image of) Hari, obtains a great recompense; so does he who with mind fixed upon Keśava attentively recites this Puráńa.

6.8.24
