Ashvamedha yajna : A process of utilization of solar energy
=Pt.ShriRam Sharma Acharya

Those who really want to know the relationship of Sun with the human life should not get satisfied with physical scientific explanations alone, rather they should also be conversant with the Indian spiritual knowledge acquired in this context. According to the physical science, the Sun is supposed to be responsible mainly for climate, vegetation and the changes in the visible world. But the teachers of the spiritual science are of the view that the sentiments / emotions of human beings are also deeply affected by the Sun. Galileo, throwing light on the same subtle science, once said "Whatever we see is not the complete Sun. 

The real Sun is a kind of consciousness or vitality or energy, which is reflected in every atom of the solar system. Even, the photons (corpuscles or packets of energy) radiated by the atom are as powerful as those radiated by Sun". At that time, this concept was disregarded but later on scientists did extensive research on the subject. Now it has been proved through these investigations that the human beings are totally dependent on the Sun.

The science of establishing a mental contact with the Sun and knowing several hidden mysteries of nature and acquiring supernatural powers for spiritual development was known in our country asGayatri Vidya. The human body is a mixture of the elements of Earth and Sun (i.e. the matter and energy) and hence, from the physical and mental point of view, the human body is not only affected by Earth but there is a tremendous influence of the Sun also. When we think over our physical body, it appears that by taking food, water, etc, that is the essence of earth, a number of elements like oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, iron, sulphur, etc, are produced inside the body. Herein, vital energies that are subtler than these elements are active. 

The pulsations in our body are due only to Prana (vitality). We are able to perform actions like sneezing, yawning, sleeping, closing the eyelids, etc. only because of Prana. These actions cannot be performed by inert matter (elements). Prana is subtler than all the elements. That is why, it cannot be seen. However, it can be felt and understood easily through the science ofGayatri. According to astronomers, basically there are only two elements in the Sun- first, hydrogen and second helium. Sun consumes hydrogen and converts it into helium. This gives it energy, heat and light. Had this reaction not been taking place, the Sun would not have been visible. Other hypothesis is that the Sun is omnipresent and almighty. Now, if we wish we can call it a Soul, an aggregate of Prana, or a burning ball of hydrogen. If anyone has a doubt that the Sun is a fireball, then he should study it with telescope. 

Thanks GOD, Thanks Sadguru,
