Mukti· LiberationPurified Consciousness Is Attracted to the Lord
“When one is fully qualified with all these transcendental attributes and his consciousness is thus completely purified, he is immediately attracted simply by hearing My name or hearing of My transcendental quality.”
What the purport teaches

- Following the rules and regulations recommended in scripture frees consciousness from contamination. Through this process, a person becomes qualified with transcendental qualities.
- When consciousness is completely purified, simply hearing the name, qualities, or form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead immediately attracts the devotee to Him.
