Chapter 43 strongly emphasizes the purifying power of engaging with the stories of saints. The author, Hemad, posits that to wash away the 'filth of accumulated sins' and make the inner self pure, other means are useless compared to the remembrance of the glory of God's devotees. While acknowledging that news of death does not please anyone's heart, the chapter asserts that the passing of saints and sages is an exception because it purifies both the listeners and the speakers of the story, making the act of remembrance a profound spiritual practice.
