Project Idea: Surya, The Sun-God

Surya the Sun-God is the father of Sugriva in the Ramayana, and he is the father of Karna in the Mahabharata, plus there are other stories about Surya and his family that you can learn about online. He is a fascinating character!

Research Tip: Start with the Wikipedia article about Surya and his wives Chhaya and Saranyu, and you might be related in these articles too: Konark Sun Temple, Makar Sankranti, Savitr, and Rahu the Eclipse Demon. There are also comic books on Reserve in Bizzell: Surya: How the Sun God Was TamedTapati: Daughter of the Sun God, and Konark: Temple to the Sun.
