During the medieval period in India, worshipers of Surya formed one of the five principal sects. Worship of Surya ranked with the worship of [[Shiva]], [[Shakti]], [[Vishnu]] and [[Ganesha]]. The importance of the Sun God Surya is evident in Vedic hymns and Hindu mythology. The Gayatri hymn from the Rig-Veda identifies Surya with the Hindu Trinity. The hymn is addressed to the sun and associates [[Brahma]] with the sun in the morning, Shiva with the sun at midday, and Vishnu with the sun in the evening. The worship of Surya is mentioned repeatedly in the Ramayana, the oldest epic in Sanskrit literature. After offering a prayer to Surya, Rama overcomes his enemy with ease.
No período medieval indiano, os devotos de Surya integravam uma
das cinco seitas principais. O culto a Surya equiparava-se aos cultos
dedicados a [[Special:MyLanguage/Shiva|Shiva]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Shakti|Shakti]], [[Special:MyLanguage/Vishnu|Vishnu]] e [[Special:MyLanguage/Ganesha|Ganesha]]. A importância do Deus Sol Surya evidencia-se nos hinos védicos e na mitologia hindu. O hino Gayatri, do Rig-Veda, identifica-o com a Trindade hindu. Dedicado ao sol, o hino associa [[Special:MyLanguage/Brahma|Brahma]] ao sol da manhã, Shiva ao sol do meio-dia e Vishnu ao sol da tarde. O culto a Surya é mencionado repetidamente no Ramayana, o épico mais antigo da literatura sânscrita. Depois de
oferecer uma oração a Surya, Rama derrota o inimigo com facilidade.


Surya is traditionally depicted seated on a lotus in a chariot of gold drawn by seven horses or by a single horse with seven heads. He crosses the sky observing the good and bad deeds of both mortals and immortals. Surya’s chariot is usually depicted with only one wheel. The one wheel is seen as symbolic of the straight path of justice he maintains. The charioteer is the deity of the dawn, who rides in front of Surya, using his body to shelter the world from Surya’s brilliant rays.
