Shloka 7
श्रेयो-धर्मकर्मविचारः
Inquiry into Śreyas, Dharma, and Karma
शृणु सर्वमिदं दैत्य विष्णोमहित्म्यमुत्तमम् । विष्णौ जगत् स्थितं सर्वमिति विद्धि परंतप,'शत्रुओंको संताप देनेवाले दैत्य! भगवान् विष्णुका यह सम्पूर्ण उत्तम माहात्म्य सुनो-- तुम्हें यह मालूम होना चाहिये कि यह समस्त संसार भगवान् विष्णुमें ही स्थित है
śṛṇu sarvam idaṃ daitya viṣṇoḥ māhātmyam uttamam | viṣṇau jagat sthitaṃ sarvam iti viddhi parantapa ||
ビーシュマは言った。「おお、敵を焼き尽くすダイティヤよ、ヴィシュヌの至高の大いなる功徳を、余すところなく聞け。確かに知れ――この全世界はヴィシュヌに安住している。」

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches a Vaiṣṇava theological principle: Viṣṇu is the sustaining ground of existence, and the entire universe abides in Him. Ethically, it frames right understanding (jñāna) and reverent listening (śravaṇa) as foundations for dharmic orientation.
Bhīṣma, in an instructive mode, addresses a Daitya and introduces a discourse on Viṣṇu’s supreme greatness, urging the listener to attend carefully and to grasp the cosmological claim that all the world is established in Viṣṇu.
