helikaścitrabhānuśca kalighnastārkṣyavāhanaḥ | dikpatiḥ padminīnāthaḥ kuśeśayakaro hariḥ
Helika, Citrabhānu, destruidor de Kali, aquele cuja montaria é Tārkṣya; senhor das direções, senhor dos bosques de lótus, criador do lótus kuśeśaya, Hari — estes são os nomes do Sol.
Skanda
Tirtha: Kāśī-kṣetra (general context)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Sūrya with Garuḍa symbolism—either Garuḍa-bannered chariot or Garuḍa hovering; the four directions personified bowing; lotus ponds blooming under sunlight; a subtle motif of Kali (dark figure) being dispelled.
Sūrya is praised as the force that overcomes Kali’s darkness and awakens life—like the lotus opening to daylight.
Kāśī is the textual setting (Kāśīkhaṇḍa), though this verse itself is a general Sūrya-nāma praise.
Recitation of these names as protective and purifying praise.
