श्रद्धावाननसूयश्च श्रृणुयादपि यो नरः
सोऽपिमुक्तःशुभाँल्लोकान्प्राप्नुयात्पुण्यकर्मणाम्

śraddhāvānanasūyaśca śrṛṇuyādapi yo naraḥ
so'pimuktaḥśubhā~llokānprāpnuyātpuṇyakarmaṇām

TRANSLATION

And the man who listens to it with faith and without cavilling, he too shall be released, and shall reach the auspicious realms of those who have performed virtuous deeds.

PURPORT

A man who, with faith and without cavilling, hears the Gita when taught by a qualified teacher, he too is, by such hearing, released from all evil incompatible with devotional life. He shall reach the Lokas, i.e., the realms of the hosts of My devotees who have done virtuous acts, and who will facilitate the growth of devotion in these new arrivals and lead them ultimately to liberation.
