9: 1. The Names of the Sun mentioned in the Secret Doctrine are:
a. Maritanda.—S. D., I, 61, 126-129, 483; II, 221.
b. Agni.—S. D., II, 60, 400.
c. Surya.—S. D., I, 127, 643.
d. Helios.—S. D., II, 47.
e. Apollo.—S. D., II, 6, 129.
2. The Sun in the S. D. is used in the three following connotations:
a. The Central Spiritual Sun.—S. D., I, 519, 520, 700, 736; S. D., II,—120, 249, 251.
b. The visible physical Sun.—S. D., I, 628.
c. The three secondary Suns.—As above.
Consider the Microcosm, manifesting through the causal body, which contains the three permanent atoms, the centres of force for the three bodies, the mental, astral and physical.
3. Consider the following three statements.—S. D. I., 574.
a. In the Kosmos..The Sun is the kama-rupa, or desire body  of Akasha (the second aspect of Brahma).
Compare 'Son of necessity.'—S. D., I, 74.
b. In the system...The Sun is the sixth principle, buddhi, and its vehicle.  (The Dragons of Wisdom taking form on the fourth cosmic ether, our buddhic plane).
c. As an entity...The Sun is the seventh principle of Brahma or the aspect of active intelligent matter.
Hence 'rejection' as it is called ensues because consciousness or the development of the Ego (logoic or human) is the goal of evolution, and not the matter aspect.  "The Primordial Ray is only the vehicle of the Divine Ray."—S. D., I, 108.
