These eleven highsouled ones have been mentioned as a hundred in the Shatarudra (of the Vedas). Angsha, Bhaga, Mitra, Varuna the lord of waters, Dhatri, Aryaman, Jayanta, Bhaskara, Tvashtri, Pushan, Indra, and Vishnu, are said to comprise a tale of twelve. These twelve are called Adityas and they are the sons of Kashyapa as the Shruti declares.
