Aum Ravaye Namah:
The meaning of the word Ravi is Tej. Glow. Shine. Good behaved pious
men; saints and sages have this glow on their faces. This is the Tej
of the Sun God. We bow to such people to get their blessings. The
light of the moon and stars, the heat of fire and Yadnya Kunda
everything is the Tej of the Sun God. The heat of the body, the heat
(Jatharagni) that digests food is the presence of the Sun God in our
body. If you are not well at stomach just don’t eat after the
sunset. The presence of the Sun God, during daytime, will digest the
food. The seven power points (Sapta Chakra) in our body represent
the Sun God. These seven points control and govern our physical and
mental activities. They are the source of heat and energy to all our
activities. If there is no heat in our body we are cold – we are no
more. Worship this Tej of the Sun God.
