One Hindu myth relates that the sun-god Surya married the daughter of the celestial architect of the gods. She found Surya’s radiance too strong to bear and ran away. Surya pursued his wife and after a long search found her. Once they were reunited, the architect of the gods refashioned Surya so that his wife would be able to remain with him. While singing praises to the sun god, the architect cut away his excessive radiance, keeping intact just a fraction of his original glory in spherical shape. Out of the excess radiance, he created weapons for various gods, including Shiva’s trident. Surya remained resplendent in spite of his alteration. He and his wife had many sons. The eldest was [[Vaivasvata Manu]], who in Hindu tradition is the progenitor of the human race. We know Vaivasvata Manu as the [[manu]] of the fifth root race.
Um dos mitos hindus relata que o deus-sol Surya desposou a filha do arquiteto celestial dos deuses. Ela achou a radiação de Surya forte demais e fugiu. Ele perseguiu-a e encontrou-a, depois de longa busca. Uma vez reunidos, o arquiteto dos deuses fez um ajuste em Surya de maneira que a esposa pudesse permanecer ao seu lado. Enquanto cantava
louvores ao deus-sol, o arquiteto diminuiu-lhe a radiação excessiva, mantendo intacta somente uma fração da sua glória original, na forma esférica. Com a radiação excedente, o arquiteto criou armas para vários deuses, dentre elas o tridente de Shiva. Apesar da sua alteração Surya continuou resplandecente. Ele e a esposa tiveram muitos filhos. O filho mais velho foi [[Special:MyLanguage/Vaivasvata Manu|Vaivasvata Manu]] que,na tradição hindu, é o progenitor da raça humana. Nós conhecemo-lo como o [[Special:MyLanguage/manu|manu]] da quinta raça-raiz.


One of the most famous temples dedicated to Surya is the colossal thirteenth-century Surya Deula (Sun Temple) at Konark in the state of Orissa, India. This one-hundred-foot-high temple and its hall are designed in the shape of a giant chariot borne on twelve carved stone wheels and drawn by seven stone horses. Today the worship of Surya as the supreme deity is limited to one small sect, but an image of Surya is in every Hindu temple.
