Surya Mantra

OM HRAM HRIM HRAUM
SAHA SURYAYA NAMAHA



Surya, the Supreme Light, also known as Aditya, Surya, Bhanu or Ravi is the chief solar deity in Hinduism and refers to the Sun.The mantra meaning is 'Oh Surya (Sun), I bow to thee'.

Surya is the chief of the Navagraha, the nine Indian Classical planets and important elements of Hindu astrology. He is often depicted riding a chariot harnessed by seven horses which might represent the seven colors of the rainbow or the seven chakras in the body. He is also the presiding deity of Sunday. Surya is regarded as the Supreme Deity by Saura sect and Smartas worship him as one of the five primary forms of God.

Surya is also known for his life nourishing properties. Surya represents soul, will-power, fame, the eyes, general vitality, courage, kingship, father, highly placed persons and authority.

Surya's two sons, Shani and Yama, are responsible for the judgment of human life. Shani provides the results of one's deeds during one's life through appropriate punishments and rewards while Yama grants the results of one's deeds after death.

A well-known Hindu mode of worship of the devotional movements of Surya is done at the rising of the Sun, known as Surya Namaskara (Sun Salutation). Ten yogic postures are assumed in successive flowing movements to complete one namaskar. Twelve sacred Hindu mantras are uttered and for each mantra one complete namaskar is done. Ancient practice is to do 108 namaskaras a day. It is considered most auspicious by Hindus to do this.

The Gayatri Mantra and Aditya Hridayam hymn are associated with Surya as well.
