How does Chapter 3 describe the universal accessibility of listening to the Guru's stories for spiritual progress?

The teachings in Chapter 3 emphasize that listening to the stories of the Guru is a completely universal means for spiritual advancement. The text explicitly states that this path is open to all, regardless of social standing or gender, including 'woman, Shudra, or of low caste.' This contrasts with more complex subjects like the duties of Varna and Ashram. As mentioned in Chapter 3, for all four castes, from Brahmins onwards, the means is listening to the stories of the Guru. This method requires no strenuous exertion, making it an accessible and easy means for everyone to burn their sins and attain the supreme goal.
