Systems of Knowledge and Vyāsa’s Nārāyaṇa-Origin
एकान्तिनस्ते पुरुषा: श्वेतद्वीपनिवासिन: । गच्छध्वं तत्र मुनयस्तत्रात्मा मे प्रकाशित:,“मुनियो! वे श्वेतद्वीपके निवासी मेरे एकान्त भक्त हैं, तुम वहीं जाओ। वहाँ मेरे स्वरूपका प्रत्यक्ष दर्शन होता है”
ekāntinas te puruṣāḥ śvetadvīpanivāsinaḥ | gacchadhvaṃ tatra munayas tatrātmā me prakāśitaḥ ||
毗湿摩说道：“居住在白洲（Śvetadvīpa）的人，皆是一心专注的虔敬者。诸位仙人，前往那里吧；因为在那里，我的真我亲自显现——在那里，人得以直接观见我真实的本性。”

Educational Q&A
Single-minded devotion (ekānta-bhakti) is presented as a direct means to encounter the manifest presence of the Divine; the verse elevates exclusive, unwavering devotion as a path to immediate spiritual realization (darśana) rather than merely conceptual knowledge.
Bhīṣma addresses sages and points them toward Śvetadvīpa, describing its residents as exclusive devotees and indicating that in that realm his true Self is directly revealed—implying a sacred locus where the Divine is experienced in a manifest form.
