पृष्ठभागोऽयं यन्त्रेण केनचित् काले काले मार्जयित्वा यथास्रोतः परिवर्तयिष्यते। तेन मा भूदत्र शोधनसम्भ्रमः। सज्जनैः मूलमेव शोध्यताम्।

PAÑCAKARṆAVĀTSYĀYANA : A Vedic preceptor. Because Pañcakarṇa was born in the family of Vātsya he got the name Vātsyāyana.

In the language of Yogic treatises the seven life-winds in the human head are called the ‘Saptasūryas’ (seven suns). Pañcakarṇavātsyāyana had a clear knowledge of these Saptasūryas and has given a vivid description of them. (Taittirīya Āraṇyaka).
