एकचक्ररथो मित्रो मंदेहारिस्तमिस्रहा । दैत्यहा पापहर्ता च धर्मोधर्म प्रकाशकः
ekacakraratho mitro maṃdehāristamisrahā | daityahā pāpahartā ca dharmodharma prakāśakaḥ
Ekacakraratha, Mitra, destruidor dos Mandehas, dissipador das trevas; matador dos daityas, removedor do pecado e revelador do dharma e do adharma — estes são os nomes do Sol.
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra (general context)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Sūrya on a single-wheeled chariot (ekacakra) cutting through darkness; shadowy Mandeha demons dissolving at dawn; a beam of light revealing a scale-like motif of dharma vs adharma.
Sūrya is moral illumination itself—by his light, dharma is known and sin is dispelled.
The hymn is embedded in the Kāśīkhaṇḍa’s Kāśī-centered teaching tradition.
No specific ritual is detailed beyond praising/reciting these names for purification.
