Swamiji, I am trying to understand Bhagavat Geetha and Bhagavatam deeply, as I know that they are the store house of great knowledge. But when I saw these lines from Bhagavat Geetha, I have one doubt. “ādityānām ahaḿ viṣṇur jyotiṣāḿ ravir aḿśumān marīcir marutām asmi nakṣatrāṇām ahaḿ śaśī ” Here Bhagavan says that among stars I am moon. But moon is not a star. So I think there may be some another message than what we had understood. Please make it clear for me, Swamiji.

You are looking at the definitions given by Science for celestial bodies.
But you are missing the meaning or Thathwam given by Bhagavan.
Here He is drawing attention of the wandering mind to the most beautiful or greatest things visible or tangible in this world.
Then the mind can have a bit of feel or taste of what divinity can be compared to.
Bhagavan is attracting the mind from mundane things to noble things and start experiencing His presence there.
It is called His Vibhoothis.
HariOm!
