Purport [भावार्थ - स्वामी दयानन्द] - There is Shleshalankara or double meaning here. As the earth and other worlds uphold men and other creatures, in the same way, the solar world upholds the earth and other spheres by its attracting power or gravitation. God upholds the sun and other worlds by His power. In this way, all worlds are upheld in proper order. Without this, it is not possible for any world with weight and velocity to stay in its axis. Without the rotation of the worlds it is not possible to have the parts of time like the seconds, hours, days and nights, fortnights, months, seasons and years etc.
