The inhabitants, of White Island whom I have seen, are all shorn of the five senses that the ordinary persons have. All of them are of awakened souls, endued as they are with true knowledge. They are, again, entirely devoted to the foremost of Beings, viz., the Supreme Lord of the universe. They always engaged in adoring that great God, and the latter always sports with them.
तत्र ये पुरुषाः श्वेताः पञ्चेन्द्रियविवर्जिताः। प्रतिबुद्धाश्च ते सर्वे भक्ताश्च पुरुषोत्तमम्॥ तेऽर्चयन्ति सदा देवं तैः सार्धं रमते च सः।
