स्वर रहित पद पाठ
अनेजत्। एकम्। मनसः। जवीयः। न। एनत्। देवाः। आप्नुवन्। पूर्वम्। अर्षत्॥ तत्। धावतः। अन्यान्। अति। एति। तिष्ठत्। तस्मिन्। अपः। मातरिश्वा। दधाति॥४॥
Translation -
That one, though absolutely motionless, is swifter than mind. The gods could not overtake It, when it sped before them. Though standing still, it outstrips all the others running fast. Even the vehement wind concedes its supremacy. (1)
Notes -
Contradictory statements are only to give an idea of the extra-ordinary nature of the Supreme Deity. Anejat, absolutely motionless. Manaso javiyaḥ, mind is considered to be the speediest thing, but God Supreme is speedier than mind. Arsat, when it sped (before them). Devāḥ, in legend Agni, Väyu, Sürya, Indra etc. are gods; most of them are speedy. Also, sense-organs, which are unable to comprehend the God Supreme. Tişthat, standing still. Tasmin apo matariśvā dadhāti, even the wind concedes His supremacy. (An arbitrary translation of 'apo dadhāti'; Hindi idiom, आगे पानी भरना ) ।
