Uttanka’s Viśvarūpa Request and the ‘Uttanka Clouds’ Boon (उत्तङ्क-विष्वरूप-दर्शनम्)
असच्च सदसच्चैव यद् विश्व सदसत् परम् । मत्त: परतरं नास्ति देवदेवात् सनातनात्,असत्ू, सदसत् तथा उससे भी परे जो अव्यक्त जगत् है, वह भी मुझ सनातन देवाधिदेवसे पृथक् नहीं है
asac ca sad asac caiva yad viśvaṃ sad-asat param | mattaḥ parataraṃ nāsti devadevātsanātanāt ||
Dijo Vāyu: «Cuanto hay en este universo que es irreal, y cuanto es real—y aun aquello que está más allá de lo real y de lo irreal (el principio supremo, no manifestado)—nada de ello se halla separado de mí, el eterno Dios de los dioses. No hay nada más alto que yo».

The verse asserts the absolute supremacy and all-pervasiveness of the eternal ‘God of gods’: everything classed as real (sat), unreal (asat), and even what is beyond both (param, the unmanifest) is not separate from that supreme principle; nothing higher exists.
Vāyudeva is speaking in a doctrinal register, proclaiming a highest theological claim: the entire cosmos—manifest and unmanifest—is encompassed within and non-different from the supreme divine reality he identifies with.
