[ Surya Prajnapti Sutra ]
A diameter and breadth of one hundred thousand yojanas, six hundred and twenty-six yojanas and one-eighth of a yojana,
A circumference of three hundred thousand yojanas, eighteen thousand yojanas and two hundred and seventy-nine yojanas,
This is the measure of the day, eighteen muhurtas less two one-eighth muhurtas, twelve muhurtas is the day, two one-eighth muhurtas is the night. 2. When the sun enters, it moves in a circle outside the outermost circle, and when the sun moves in a circle outside the outermost circle, then the measure of that circle is eighty-four yojanas and one-eighth of a yojana,
A diameter and breadth of one hundred thousand yojanas, six hundred and eighty-two yojanas and fifty-two yojanas and one-eighth of a yojana,
A circumference of three hundred thousand yojanas, eighteen thousand yojanas and two hundred and ninety-nine yojanas,
This is the measure of the day, eighteen muhurtas less four one-eighth muhurtas, twelve muhurtas is the day, four one-eighth muhurtas is the night.
Thus, when the sun enters, it moves from one circle to another, and as it moves from one circle to another, it increases in diameter and breadth by five yojanas and thirty-five one-eighth yojanas, and as it moves from one circle to another, it increases in circumference by eighteen yojanas, and as it moves from one circle to another, it moves in a circle outside the outermost circle,
When the sun moves in a circle outside the outermost circle, then the measure of that circle is eighty-four yojanas and one-eighth of a yojana, a diameter and breadth of nine thousand nine hundred and sixty-four yojanas,
A circumference of three hundred thousand yojanas, fifteen thousand yojanas and one hundred and ninety-nine yojanas, a little more than that,
This is the measure of the day, eighteen muhurtas is the day, twelve muhurtas is the night,
This is the measure of the six months, this is the measure of the end of the six months, this is the measure of the year, this is the measure of the end of the year.
