4 kumaras advocate process of hearing

The 4 kumaras visit Prthu Maharaj and he asks them 2 questions:

1. How can those who are entangled in material existence, such as householders be blessed with good fortune?
2. How can one make quick advancement in spiritual life?

Sanat Kumara the chief of the kumaras responds by stating various things like: engagement in Devotional service,enquire abt SPG,apply Bhakti Yoga, follow rules and regulations, take shelter of pure devotee,etc from verses SB 4.22.20 to SB 4.22.24

He then states how the process of hearing helps increase attachment to the Lord and detachment from material life.

SB 4.22.25: The devotee should gradually increase the culture of devotional service by constant hearing of the transcendental qualities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. These pastimes are like ornamental decorations on the ears of devotees. By rendering devotional service and transcending the material qualities, one can easily be fixed in transcendence in the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

SB 4.22.26: Upon becoming fixed in his attachment to the Supreme Personality of Godhead by the grace of the spiritual master and by awakening knowledge and detachment, the living entity, situated within the heart of the body and covered by the five elements, burns up his material surroundings exactly as fire, arising from wood, burns the wood itself.
