Gabhastinemih -The Centre of the Supreme planetary system. The Sanskrit term `Gabhasti' means `rays', and the term `nemih' means the `spokes.' Therefore, the term indicates " One who is the hub of the wheel-of-light in which the spokes are His own rays of brilliancy. " Astronomically, we can consider this as the sun, the centre of the planetary system. Subjectively, He is the Atman, the Self-the Effulgent Consciousness-beaming out Himself to the whirls of matter (the five koshas). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
