Original text · English · substantive masculine

Sūrya, as, m. (perhaps originally suvar-ya, or according to some, savar-ya, savar being for sa- van, cf. the etymology of sūra, col. 2; according to Vopa-deva fr. rt. sṛ), the Sun or its deity, (the name Sūrya being generally distinguished in the Veda from Savitṛ, q. v., and Āditya, q. v., as be- longing to a distinct god; from some passages, how- ever, it would appear that these names are intended to be interchangeable as representing various forms of one and the same divine personality; in the later mythology Sūrya as Savitṛ is reckoned as one of the twelve Ādityas or emblems of the Sun in the twelve months of the year; by Yāska, Nirukta VII. 5, he is regarded as one of the original Vedic triad, his place being in the sky, while that of Agni is on the earth, and that of Indra is in the atmosphere; many hymns or parts of hymns in the Ṛg-veda are in praise of Sūrya, e. g. I. 50, I. 115, IV. 13, VII. 60, X. 37, X. 170; sometimes he is called son of Dyaus, sometimes of Aditi; in one passage Uṣas, the Dawn, is his wife, in another he is styled the child of the Dawns; he moves through the sky in a chariot drawn by seven ruddy horses or mares [see saptāśva, harit, harid-aśva, śundhyu]; he is described as the eye of Mitra and Varuṇa, and sometimes of Agni; he is all-seeing, ever beholding the good and bad deeds of mortals, the preserver of all things stationary and moving; in other passages he is represented as holding a somewhat secondary position, being made to shine or have his path pre- pared for him by Mitra and Varuṇa, by Aryaman, by Indra, by the Dawns, and others; the long hymn, Atharva-veda XIII. 2, is entirely in his praise; there is another addressed to the Sun, called Bhānu, in Mahā-bhārata, Vana-parvan 166, &c.; and in the Yuddha-kāṇḍa of the Rāmāyaṇa [VI. 106, Bombay edit.], Rāma, when about to do battle with Rāvaṇa, is told by Agastya to repeat a hymn, called Āditya- hṛdaya, to the Sun, there called Vivasvat, and iden- tified with Āditya, Savitṛ, Sūrya, Pūṣan, and in fact with Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, and all the other gods; in the later mythology the seven-horsed chariot of Sūrya is said to be driven by Aruṇa or the Dawn as its charioteer, who is represented without legs; the Sun, whether named Sūrya or Vivasvat, has several wives, see sūryā below, and cf. sa-varṇā, see also chāyā, sañ-jñā, aśvinī; by Sañjñā he had two children, Yama and Yamunā, q. q. v. v.; by Aśvinī, the two Aśvins; by Kuntī, before her mar- riage with Pāṇḍu, he had Karṇa, q. v.; and he is also supposed to be the father of Manu Vaivasvata, and to be the progenitor of one of the two great lines of Hindū kings [see sūrya-vaṃśa below]; seven Sūryas are sometimes mentioned, which are probably the seven planets, the Sun being regarded as a planet by Hindū astronomers; ninety-four synonyms of Sūrya are commonly given, and his epithets are almost innumerable; at the end of a Kalpa he is called Kāla-sūrya); a symbolical expres- sion for the number twelve (in allusion to the sun in the twelve signs of the zodiac); the swallow-wort (either Calotropis or Asclepias Gigantea, = arka); N. of the son of Bali; of a Dānava; of an astro- nomer (= sūrya-dāsa); epithet of Śiva; (ā), f. the wife of Sūrya or the Sun, (also called Sañjñā, q. v.); the daughter of Sūrya or the Sun, (see Ṛg-veda I. 116, 17; also described as daughter of Savitṛ and wife of the Aśvins, and in other places as married to Soma; in Ṛg-veda I. 119, 2. she is called Ūrjānī, and in VI. 55, 4, VI. 58, 4. the sister of Pūṣan, q. v., who is described as loving her, and receiving her as a gift from the gods; according to some she represents a weak manifestation of the Sun; Sūryā Sāvitrī is regarded as the authoress of the Sūryā-sūkta, Ṛg-veda X. 85; in Naigh. I. 11. Sūryā is enumerated among the vāṅ-nāmāni); the hymn about the marriage of Sūryā (= sūryā-sūkta, q. v.); a new bride; a drug; the colocynth or bitter gourd; [cf. Gr. ἥλιος; Lat. sol; Goth. sunna, sunno, sanil; Angl. Sax. sunna, sunne, sun.]
