TRANSLATION
A devotee who rises early in the morning and with folded hands chants these prayers sung by Lord Śiva and gives facility to others to hear them certainly becomes free from all bondage to fruitive activities.
PURPORT
Mukti  or liberation means becoming free from the results of fruitive activities. As stated in  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam :  muktir hitvānyathā rūpam .  Mukti  means giving up all other activities, and  svarūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ  means being situated in one's constitutional position. ( Bhāg.  2.10.6) In this conditional state we are entangled by one fruitive activity after another.  Karma-bandhana  means the bonds of fruitive activity. As long as one's mind is absorbed in fruitive activities, he has to manufacture plans for happiness. The  bhakti-yoga  process is different, for  bhakti-yoga  means acting according to the order of the supreme authority. When we act under the direction of supreme authority, we do not become entangled by fruitive results. For instance, Arjuna fought because the Supreme Personality of Godhead wanted him to; therefore he was not responsible for the outcome of the fighting. As far as devotional service is concerned, even hearing and chanting is as good as acting with our body, mind and senses. Actually hearing and chanting are also activities of the senses. When the senses are utilized for one's own sense gratification, they entangle one in  karma , but when they are used for the satisfaction of the Lord, they establish one in  bhakti .
