Meaning :

Meditate the Lord as the one letter indestructible (OM),the one who is red(at

the time of sunset) and who is to be sought after as the path with his own

assistance in the form of reasoning. His belly is adorned with garlands of

flowers .Being the one embodiment of forbearance and  ability ,he is the bearer

of the burden of the whole earth and is the Lord of the whole lot of creation

..His form is most speedy and he is the consumer beyond  measure as the ultimate

solution and dissolution.

 

EXPLANATION :

1.OM is understood as the one indestructible letter by the ancient seers .All

the other letters form the alphabet that is uttered by the beings whereas OM is

the letter that utters forth the whole universe with its individuals . At the

same time, it says with them as their own utterance of respiration.

2.The sun is the visible form of the Lord since He is the first object of

manifestation  to the perception the beings of one solar system .Sunrise and

sunset mark  the emerging of the individual consciousness during which times,

the Lord appears in the form of a globe  of red light .The foetus forming in

the mother’s womb with the various blood vessels in their formation is

described so in the scriptures. The path between sunrise and sunset is measured

by all the beings as their own day to form the path of their own span.Hence the

Lord leads the beings as the one path during his course of the path of the day

and  the path of the year.Span is measured in terms of days and  year and is

experienced in terms of the detail which we call the routine of the day.

4.The faculty of reasoning is nothing but liking the items of the succession in

terms of nothing but linking  the items of  one’s own comprehension.This

keeps the thread of the continuity of consciousness that passes through the

broken items of the routine.In the form of the capacity of reasoning, the Lord

leads people through life and he forms their own path.

5.Lord Vishnu is decorated with the garland of fresh flowers.The garland which 

never withers is called Vaijayanthi which is said to have been prepared by the

devas who are ever devoted to conceived by the devas in terms of their own

service contributing  to the creative activity of the Lord.

6.Forbearance is thecapacity to absorb all oddities into the LCM of poise.Ablity

is the power tostand as support without seeking support for himself.With these

two traits, the Lord stands as the Lord protector of all.Imparting these two

traits according to need he sends down lords to the earth as rulers and layer of

the law.

7.The above two traits qualify the Lord as the bearer of the whole burden of his

earth.Sesha, the serpent of eternity stand as the principle that bears the

existence of physical matter.Sesha is the form of the Lord which can contain his

presence as existence.

8.Through the above three traits, the Lord stands as the owner of the lot of the

whole creation.The problems that are to be solved by the individual form the lot

of the individual, while the whole creation as a unit forms the great lot of the

Lord.

9.As the sun god who forms the path, he is the most speedy of all the beings of

the solar system.All the other bodies have their speeds relative to the speed of

the sun.The rays of the sun have their own speed that cannot be excelled by any

other state of matter on this  earth.All these rays that are received and

contained by the various planets according to bility and need are all the

multifarious manifestations of the presence of the Lord.

10.The one fire which forms the breath of the whole solar system and which we

call the globe  of the sun  and the totality of the rays of the sun is the one

fire that awaits the day of ultimate solution and dissolution to consume

everything into itsown presence
