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. | One Hindu myth relates that the sun-god Surya married the daughter of the celestial architect of the gods.
