Panchayama

(1 Yama = 1/3 part of day = 3 hours. There are 8 yamas in day and night.

Pancha yama = 5 yamas when men do their work).

[The 8 Vasus are sub-manifestations of Brahma or the creative Purusha.

They are energies that help creation in various ways. They find no place in the Hindu worship now. They are invoked only in marriage ceremonies when their appropriateness is evident. The Vedic G.o.ds can be a.n.a.lysed thus:--:

Purusha

--+------------------------+-----------------------+--

Creative or Brahma Preservative or Vishnu Destructive or Siva 8 Vasus. 12 adityas. 11 Rudras.

These are 31 G.o.ds. Then there are Praj.a.pati and Indra, making the number 33. The Brihat aranyaka says that the 33 Krores of Devas are only sub rays of these primary 33].
