What does Chapter 28 teach about the consequences of attaining the company of saints and listening to their stories?

Chapter 28 teaches that when the accumulated karma of many births comes to fruition, one attains the company of saints. This sacred association ignites the "fire of discrimination," leading to detachment from worldly enjoyments and the destruction of past karma, making one's life successful. Furthermore, the chapter states that listening to and singing the supremely purifying stories of saints has a blessed effect. It promises that both the listener and the singer will merge into the same divine place, attaining imperishable happiness and having the sins associated with listening to slander and false stories destroyed.
