What are the timings to worship
the Lord Sun by the Deities ?
The Scripts say that the Sun God moves so
swiftly in the sky which can not be estimated.
But it is said the Sun travels
one thousand Yojanas in one minute.
In olden days, the distance was used to be
calculated in yojanas. One yojana is equivant
to eight miles. Means the Sun travels
eight thousand miles in one minutes.
The Astronomical scientists also say in the
Solar system the Sun travels so swiftly.
Now coming to our scripts, the Sun God,
in one minute when He travels one thousand yojans,
he moves maximum two hundred yojans
and two yojanas minimum.
In the morning time Indra,
the lord of Devas worships the Sun God,
in the afternoon the Yamadharmarajamah worships the Sun ,
in the twilight when the Sun sets ,
the Varunh worships Him and
at midnight the deity Chandrah worships the Sun.
So, it is said, that the religious custom
of praying the Sun God three times a day
and it is called Tri Sandhyavandanam which
we should have to observe
three times a day rightfully without fail.
The Sun God is worshipped in three names of
Gayatri , Sarita, and Savitri in different Sandhyas
(twilights).
