Worth noting two words with which the verse portion of the first chapter ends. First: samyak parīkṣya, «having duly examined». That is, after all the lists — to whom not, to whom yes — it is said that even the worthy must be examined.
We examined this rule at Śāṭyāyani (34) and noted that among Vaishnavas examination is mutual: not only does the teacher test the disciple, but the disciple tests the teacher, and for a year at that. Second: sa mām eti, «he comes to me». Worth appreciating how the chapter ends that listed the hundred and eight books, the four kinds of liberation, and the four-runged ladder of reading.
It ends with a verb of motion toward a person: not «dissolves», not «ceases», not «becomes brahman», but comes to me. This is the very verb standing in the Gītā: mām eti so'rjuna, «he comes to me, Arjuna» (8.7); and it was said at Varāha (5.44) that the goal is not the cessation of motion but a change of its direction. Add what is said of the means: paṭhec chṛṇuyād vāpi, «will read or will hear».
That is, hearing is set equal to reading; and in a book that has just demanded examination and rule, this is again the same breadth spoken of at the forty-fourth verse: rule — for the one studying, promise — for the one listening.
