Sun worship, or the worship of the sun as a deity, has been practiced by various religions throughout history. The image of the sun as the world's ruler is prominent in all of them. It was a significant motif not only in Roman history but also in Sumerian and Akkadian religions. Sury was an all-seeing god in ancient India who could see both good and evil. Huitzilopochtli and Tezcatlipoca, the Aztec sun gods, demanded human sacrifice. The world's ruler was Amaterasu in Japan. In Norse mythology, Sunna is the Sun personified. She was supposed to die during Ragnarök, according to the prophecy. When I work, my days often turn into nights and then into days again, as if I were hiding from the all-seeing sun in the limbo of my room. After such a process, I finally go outside to be greeted by her lovely rays that burn away my thoughts. I look up and start a stare-down with my eyes closed. It is eternal warmth. A thunderous impact of blazing melodies. They stab my ears and they ring. And every solar flare I envision seeing feels like a kiss. For a brief moment, I was in complete harmony as I found her and she found me. We are together, like the dead birds I saw on the sidewalk the other day.
