What does the legend say?

You must be wondering what connection it has to do with the reasons to recite the Strota? Well, some answers are better told in history. It is about the legendary Ramayan times, more specifically during the final battle between Ram and Ravana.

It says that Lord Ram tried his best to defeat and kill Ravana, but everything went in vain. Disturbed and tormented by this helplessness of not killing his enemy, Lord Rama felt nothing but fatigue and disappointment.

It was in this seizing moment he prayed to his best. As he did so, the wise Agastya showed up in front of him. He appeared with the motive of refreshing Rama. He then asked him to offer his prayers to Lord Surya, reciting the aditya hridaya stotra. As he did so, he not only felt energized but also strong and prepared for the decisive fight.

Can you believe that reciting Strota could be this enthusiastic? Well, we are sure you do!

Why specifically Sundays?

According to astrology, each day of the week is bind to one God. Like the Saturdays are for Shani Deva and Tuesdays for Lord Hanuman. Similarly, Sunday or Ravi-Vaar is for Lord Surya (Ravi being his other name).

And what day would be better to praise him and seek his blessings than his day himself? Though there is no “right” time to memorize God. Yet, it is best if you chant it during dawn on Sundays. Also, you must keep in mind to avoid the consumption of salt, grains, and liquor while reciting it.

We know it is a bit hard at the start. But once you become fluent, its aura will be the best you can ever experience. Offer Lord Surya your thankfulness and gratitude. But on the other hand, don’t forget to be a little solicitous and ask him to bless you with courage and spirituality in life.
