In The Secret of the Veda, Sri Aurobindo showed that there is a deep, esoteric sense to the Vedic hymns that is the real sense of the hymns.  This Hymn to Surya and Mitra-Varuna describes the sun of Truth and the consciousness that supports and develops it.  The English translation was provided by Sri Aurobindo, The Secret of the Veda, pp. 536-537.  The recordings were made at Sri Aurobindo Ashram in 1973.  Sanskrit recited by Sri Vinayak.  English translation recited by Santosh Krinsky
