-During the medieval period in India, worshipers of Surya formed one of the five principal sects. Worship of Surya ranked with the worship of [[Shiva]], [[Shakti]], [[Vishnu]] and [[Ganesha]]. The importance of the Sun God Surya is evident in Vedic hymns and Hindu mythology. The Gayatri hymn from the Rig-Veda identifies Surya with the Hindu Trinity. The hymn is addressed to the sun and associates [[Brahma]] with the sun in the morning, Shiva with the sun at midday, and Vishnu with the sun in the evening. The worship of Surya is mentioned repeatedly in the Ramayana, the oldest epic in Sanskrit literature. After offering a prayer to Surya, Rama overcomes his enemy with ease.
+Durante el período medieval de la India, los devotos de Surya formaban una de las cinco sectas principales. La veneración a Surya estaba a la par de la veneración a Shiva, Shakti, Vishnú y Ganesha. La importancia del Dios Sol Surya es evidente en los himnos védicos y la mitología hindú. El canto Gayatri del Rig-Veda identifica a Surya con la Trinidad hindú. El himno está dirigido al sol y asocia a Brahma con el sol de la mañana, a Shiva con el sol del mediodía y a Vishnú con el sol de la tarde. La veneración a Surya se menciona repetidamente en el Ramayana, la épica más antigua de la literatura sánscrita. Tras ofrecer una oración a Surya, Rama vence a su enemigo con facilidad.
 Surya is traditionally depicted seated on a lotus in a chariot of gold drawn by seven horses or by a single horse with seven heads. He crosses the sky observing the good and bad deeds of both mortals and immortals. Surya’s chariot is usually depicted with only one wheel. The one wheel is seen as symbolic of the straight path of justice he maintains. The charioteer is the deity of the dawn, who rides in front of Surya, using his body to shelter the world from Surya’s brilliant rays.
