Aum Khagaya Namah:
Khaga means space, Akash, and gama means go - one who travels
through the sky. It indicates the presence of the sun, the sunrays
and the sun-warmth everywhere in the space. You can’t find a pinch
of place in the sea without seawater so is the sun in the universe.
There is no place, neither in our body nor outside in the entire
universe, without the sunrays. You yourself can experience this
fact. Close your eyes. Ask someone to put on and off the electric
tube light. Though your eyes are closed, you get the feel of the
tube light. You can measure and count time in days, weeks, months,
years because of the sunrise and the sunset. The sun reminds us of
the passing days and years. Life is the sum total of days, weeks,
months and years. With His own example HE prompts us not to waste
time. Wasting time in doing nothing is going fast near to the death
point. It is a slow suicide. So pray to the Sun God to give us
energy and wisdom to use the life span in the self-help and in the
service to others.
