sthāvarāṇāṁ patiś caiva niyamendriyavardhanaḥ | siddhārthaḥ siddhabhūtārtho 'cintyaḥ satyavrataḥ śuciḥ ||
ヴāユ神は言った。「彼はまことに不動のもの（山岳）の主である。戒めと規律ある行によって、心と諸感官を制する力を増し育てる。欲するところはすでに満たされ、目的はことごとく成就している。常の思惟の及ばぬ境にあり、真実の誓いに堅く、全き清浄である。」

The verse praises an ideal of dharmic greatness: true lordship is marked not by force but by inner discipline—restraint through niyama, mastery of the senses, unwavering truthfulness, and purity. Such a being is ‘acintya’, indicating that moral and spiritual perfection transcends ordinary mental measurement.
Vāyu-deva is describing and extolling a supremely virtuous figure using a chain of epithets—lord of the immovable (mountains), disciplined, fulfilled, beyond thought, truthful, and pure—framing the character’s authority as grounded in ascetic restraint and ethical integrity.
