Aum Hiranyagarbhaya Namah: The word
Hiranya means gold, golden. Gold is dear to us. Everybody loves to
possess it because it is pure in every respect. It is a pure
currency. The craving for gold is unlimited. The sun gives us pure
gold. Agni, the fire burns out all the impurities from the gold ore.
The twilight is golden in colour. It covers the entire universe in
its fold. It turns the entire universe into gold – pure gold. The
time of twilight is the best period for meditation / Tapa for study.
The sunlight makes everything visible. It has given birth to the
universe. So Hiranyagarbha means the womb of the entire universe.
The sun element is everywhere in the cosmos. The centre part of the
earth and other planets is hot as the sun. This is why all the stars
and planets are in motion and at their right position because of the
sun. All the stars and planets have (evolved) developed gradually
from the sun. The Sun God is the creator of all the living and
non-living things. The sun God is omnipotent. The cycle of nature –
the Sun, the water, the clouds, the winds, the rain and the farming
–ever goes on only because of the Sun God. HE is all-powerful,
possessing complete and unlimited power, energy and authority. HE is
the master of the entire universe. Focus your attention on HIS
ability and capacity and pray HIM to give a tiny part of HIS ability
as blessings.
