Surya / सूर्य

• Surya is the sun-god. He is said to be one of the twelve Adityas, a son of Kashyap by his wife Aditi.
• But references to him are not very precise, as very often all the twelve names of the Adityas are used as synonyms of Surya.
• Certain sources say that the Adityas are the twelve forms of Surya. Surya was married to Sangya, daughter of Vishvakarma and had by her two sons, Vaivasvat and Yam and a daughter named Yami.
• By Chhaya he also had two sons, Shani and Savarni and a daughter named Tapti. The Ashvinikumars, Revant and Bhaya were born to him of Sangya when she assumed the form of a mare.
• Surya also had other sons. He begot Karn on Kunti. Sugriv, the monkey-king was his son by Aruni.
• Surya moves through the sky in a chariot drawn by seven horses. Arun is his charioteer.
