In Hindu tradition, every day of the week is dedicated to a specific deity. Sunday is dedicated to Surya Dev (Sun God)—the divine source of energy, health, and vitality. It is believed that life on Earth is sustained by the grace of Surya Dev, and worshipping Him, especially during sunrise, brings immense blessings and quick results.
The Significance of Worshipping Surya Dev on Sundays
According to religious beliefs, offering water (Arghya) to the rising Sun brings prosperity, good health, and mental strength. Even Lord Shri Ram worshipped Surya Dev for strength and victory. Many devotees also offer water during sunset as a symbolic invitation for Surya Dev to accept their devotion the next morning.
Those with a strong Sun in their astrological chart are believed to lead lives free of major obstacles. However, by regularly chanting Surya mantras, anyone can strengthen the influence of the Sun and invite positive transformation.
