Ruler of all the planets, Sun is commonly called Surya and Aditya and believed to be the source of vitality. This is around 92,956,524 miles away from earth. All planets of the solar system are influenced by Suns gravitational field. Like all other stars, Sun is also a static star, because of its nearness to earth this gives more light and heat energy. There is also another star world other than Sun whose light energy takes more than 400 light years to reach the earth.
According to Vedas, Surya is the son of sage “Kashayap” and “Maa Aditi”, because of this reason Surya is also represented by the name of Aditya. Surya has two wives “Sangaya” and “Chaya”, of whom deity Shani is the son.
