अत्र संयमनित्यानां सिद्धानां स्वैरचारिणाम् । विमानान्यनुरूपाणि कामभोग्यानि गालव॥५-१०९-११॥

Here are the vimānas, fashioned in fitting form, of the Siddhas—ever established in self-restraint and moving at will—enjoyments to be tasted according to desire, O Gālava.

english translation

अत्र ते ऋषयः सप्त देवी चारुन्धती तथा । अत्र तिष्ठति वै स्वातिरत्रास्या उदयः स्मृतः॥५-१०९-१२॥

Here are the Seven Ṛṣis, and also the goddess Arundhatī. Here indeed stands Svātī, and here her rising is remembered by tradition.

अत्र यज्ञं समारुह्य ध्रुवं स्थाता पितामहः । ज्योतींषि चन्द्रसूर्यौ च परिवर्तन्ति नित्यशः॥५-१०९-१३॥

Here, having ascended the yajña, the Grandsire stands fixed at Dhruva. The luminaries—the moon and the sun—also revolve perpetually, without cease.

अत्र गायन्तिकाद्वारं रक्षन्ति द्विजसत्तमाः । धामा नाम महात्मानो मुनयः सत्यवादिनः॥५-१०९-१४॥

Here the foremost of the twice-born guard the gate called Gāyantikā—great-souled sages named Dhāmā, whose speech is truth.

english translation

न तेषां ज्ञायते सूतिर्नाकृतिर्न तपश्चितम् । परिवर्तसहस्राणि कामभोग्यानि गालव॥५-१०९-१५॥

Their origin is not known, nor their form, nor the measure of their tapas; for thousands of cycles they possess enjoyments to be tasted according to desire, O Gālava.
