In other words, when the mean sun is at 0 day of the solar year, the actual sun has already done 2·17 days journey of his annual course. Therefore, whenever we wish to express in days the sidereal longitude of the true or actual sun, i.e., his distance from the position he occupied on 0 day of the mean solar year, we deduct the *Sodhya* of 2·1707 days from the day of the solar year we are at.
