टिप्पणी: Rishi Dayananda has explained सुशिप्र as शोभनं शिप्रं ज्ञानं प्रापणं दवायस्य i. e. Whose knowledge or attainment is auspicious, but he has not quoted any authority to substantiate this interpretation. Sayanacharya has translated सुशिप्र as शोभनहनो शोभननासिक वा = Good-checked or good-nosed. Skandaswami's translation is also the same. सुहनो सुनस वा । Prof. Wilson translated the word as Indra with the handsome chin. “O Lord of all men, of fair cheek." 3 Thus all the other commentators ascribe physical form to Indra, taking him to be some Deity in heaven. But Rishi Dayananda has interpreted it as given above. In Nighantu 4.1 it is stated शिप्रे इति पदनाम पद-गतौ गतेस्त्रयोऽर्था: ज्ञानं गमनं प्राप्तिश्च It is on the basis of this that Rishi Dayananda has given the meaning as शोभनं ज्ञानं प्रापरणं वा यस्य In Rig. 2. 12.6 also we find the word (Sushipra), where the Rishi explains it a bit differently as शोभनानि शिप्राणि सेवनानि यस्मिन् सः । अत्र शेवृधातोः पृषोदरात्वादिष्टसिद्धिः ॥ The word Shipra is derived here from the root शेवृ-सेवने So the meaning will be, He whose worship or contemplation is auspicious. The absurdity of the meaning of सुशिप्र as fair chinned, fair nosed etc. is that the adjective used in the Mantra is विश्वचर्षणे which means literally the Seer of all. Can such an Omniscient Supreme Being be fair-chinned or fair-nosed ? These two are incompatible. So Rishi Dayananda's interpretation is quite correct. By Indra in the Mantra is meant God and not any particular deity as supposed by Sayanacharya, Skanda Swami, Wilson and Griffith etc.
