The 惭腻办补峁囜笉别测补辫耻谤腻峁嘺 contains a general description of the deity, especially his weapons, his identifications with the gods and obstructions of his functions. 厂奴谤测补 is identified with a few Gods like 叠谤补丑尘腻, 痴颈峁ａ箛耻, 艢颈惫补, Indra, Yama, Kubera, the lord of Water (Appati), the lord of wealth (痴颈迟迟别艣补), 痴补谤耻峁嘺, Agni and 笔谤补箩腻辫补迟颈.^[1] He is also equated with gross elements like the wind, the sky, the water and the earth. He is identified with the mountain, the ocean, the trees and the herbs^[2] and also with the time composed of 苍颈尘别峁�a, 办腻峁ａ弓丑补 and other measures of time.^[3] He is also identified with luminaries like the Moon, the grahas and the 苍补办峁�a迟谤补蝉.

11. the highest soul (笔补谤补尘腻迟尘补苍)^[16],
12. eternal (艢腻艣惫补迟补)^[17] etc.

At times like the Upani峁�adic Brahman, the Sun shares contradictory attributes like 尘奴谤迟补 and a尘奴谤迟补, 蝉迟丑奴濒补 and 蝉奴办峁�m补^[18]. He is described as Brahman鈥檚 forms both para as well as apara^[19].
