Kriyā-yoga, the Virāṭ-Puruṣa Mapping, and the Sun-God’s Monthly Expansions
वसिष्ठो वरुणो रम्भा सहजन्यस्तथा हुहू: । शुक्रश्चित्रस्वनश्चैव शुचिमासं नयन्त्यमी ॥ ३६ ॥
vasiṣṭho varuṇo rambhā sahajanyas tathā huhūḥ śukraś citrasvanaś caiva śuci-māsaṁ nayanty amī
婆悉吒为圣仙,伐楼那为日神,蓝婆为天女,娑诃阇尼耶为罗刹,呼呼为乾闼婆,输迦罗为龙族,奇特罗斯瓦那为夜叉——他们共同主宰舒吉月。
Bhagavatam 12.11.36 names Vasiṣṭha, Varuṇa, Rambhā, Sahajanya, Huhū, Śukra, and Citrasvana as the beings who preside over and “conduct” the month Śuci.
In Canto 12, Chapter 11, Śukadeva explains Vedic cosmology and sacred timekeeping, describing how the Sun’s course is accompanied by specific divine administrators for each month.
It trains a devotee to see time as sacred and governed by divine order, encouraging mindfulness, gratitude, and disciplined spiritual practice throughout the changing months.
