This commentary on the Isha Upanishad by Swami Nirmalananda Giri discusses the significant of the sun in spiritual practice. The outer material aspects of the sun and the inner metaphysical aspects of the sun are discussed in detail. Part 2 discusses the methods by which a person can use the sun’s energy for physical health and spiritual enlightenment. Meditation, pranayama, and the OM mantra techniques are taught.
Ramana Maharshi, the great Indian sage, taught one of his students, Jagadisha Sastri, the mantra suryosmi (I am the sun). “You must have the bhavana (mental conviction and attitude) that you are the sun. Start doing japa of the mantra suryosmi (I am the sun) with the conviction that it is really true. You will soon see the effect of it. You yourself will become surya swarupa, that is, you will have the characteristics of the sun.”
