How many ways are there to cultivate hearing ?

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

There are three ways to cultivate hearing : to  hear about scripture, to hear about the holy names  andtopics of the Lord, and to hear devotion-filled discourses.  Considering the science of the Absolute Truth, describing the Lord’s pastimes from Srimad Bhagavatam, discussing the characteristics ofVaishnavas, and hearing the ancient histories of Vaishnava families are considered “hearing the scripture”.  This is to be understood by hearing conclusive statements based on Vedanta written bygreat personalities after carefully rejecting inconclusive, non-Vaishnava statements.
