Who is considered eligible to listen to the Guru's stories, and what happens if they are distracted, based on the teachings in Chapter 3?

Chapter 3 explains that listening to the stories of the Guru is a means of salvation available to all, including women, Shudras, and individuals of low caste, making it a universal path. However, it also suggests that a certain spiritual readiness is required, stating that 'He who has merit in his pocket will be the one to listen to these stories.' The text offers reassurance for those who might be distracted during this practice. It mentions that even if some listeners fall into 'waves of sleep,' the divine grace of Shri Hari will awaken them, ensuring they still receive the benefits.
