This verse states that many classes of beings worship the Supreme Lord specifically in His form as Surya, recognizing Him as their very Self (Paramatma), and they serve Him with distinct names and duties month by month.
In Canto 5 Chapter 21, Shukadeva explains the cosmic administration and the Sun’s movement; describing the Sun’s worship shows that Surya’s power is sustained by devotional service to the Supreme Lord, not by an independent force.
See natural powers (like the Sun) as energies and forms of service to the Supreme Lord, cultivate gratitude and regulated daily worship, and remember that different duties can still be devotional when offered to Bhagavan.
