毗湿摩说道：“祂金色辉煌，如黄金般灿然；肢体至妙，涂旃檀香，佩臂钏而庄严。祂诛灭勇悍之敌，无与伦比，却又超越一切限定之名相。祂对归依者柔慈，志愿坚固不动；亦复迅疾，若风行遍一切处。”

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that the highest divine reality can be described through many epithets, including apparent opposites: compassionate yet a destroyer of evil, unmoving in essence yet moving everywhere in power. This frames dharma as protected by a deity who is both transcendent (beyond limiting description) and immanent (present and active in the world).
Bhishma is reciting a sequence of laudatory names/qualities (a stotra-like passage) describing the supreme deity’s form, ornaments, power, and metaphysical nature. The verse functions as part of a larger praise-list meant to inspire devotion and convey the deity’s role as protector and moral governor.
