Scene: Cosmic Sūrya visualization: the sun as universal form with subtle worlds in his aura; below, Kāśī’s skyline and Gaṅgā; devotees chant the nāma-mālā.
The Sun is praised as cosmic sustainer and day-maker; contemplating these names cultivates reverence for dharma and order (ṛta).
Kāśī is the overarching kṣetra context of the Kāśīkhaṇḍa passage.
Recitation of Sūrya’s epithets as stotra/nāma-japa.
