It is the duty of those brahmins who fix their minds and senses on the Supreme Self to utter such lofty invocations to the divine Sun, omnipresent, mighty and omniscient. For He, all-witnessing and non-dual, is the dispenser of sacrifices.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Svetasvatara Upanishad, Part I, Chapter II, 4<\/p>\n
O senses and O deities who favour them! Through salutations I unite myself with the eternal Brahman, who is your source. Let this prayer sung by me, who follow the right path of the Sun, go forth in all directions. May the sons of the Immortal, who occupy celestial positions, hear it!<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Svetasvatara Upanishad, Part I, Chapter II, 5<\/p>\n
If sacrifices are performed without first propitiating the Sun, then the mind becomes attached to sacrifices in which fire is kindled by the rubbing of the pieces of fire-wood, the oblations are offered to the deity Vayu and the soma juice is drunk excessively.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Svetasvatara Upanishad, Part I, Chapter II, 6<\/p>\n
Serve the eternal Brahman with the blessings of the Sun, the cause of the universe. Be absorbed, through samadhi, in the eternal Brahman. Thus your work will not bind you.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Svetasvatara Upanishad, Part I, Chapter II, 7<\/p>\n
May she who is clothed with Fire, whose knees are blackened, grant me sharpness of wit and furnish me with splendor!<\/p>\n
