Chapter 23 states that the incarnations of saints happen on Earth out of benevolence, specifically for the salvation of 'dull-witted souls,' which is considered a grace of the Almighty. It is not by mere chance that one develops an interest in their lives. The chapter clarifies that a desire to hear the stories of saints, which brings happiness and contentment, will only arise in a person's heart if they have a store of merit (Punya). Listening to these stories with faith and devotion is said to calm calamities like sorrow and delusion, allowing the devotee to attain peace.
