That means that the Sun is just like other stars - it has the same general characteristics. It simply looks brighter to us, because we are much closer to the Sun than to other stars. For example, at a speed of 300,000 km/sec, it takes light 8 minutes to reach us from our Sun; from Toliman, it takes 4 years at the same speed.
