Folks , there is an "alternative views" website called :-
In the chapter on the "Arctic home of the Vedas" , it talks about "Rijrashwa" , the red horse , that as per Vedic lore was blinded by his cruel father . Now in Vedic , Norse and even Celtic lore , the horse was often used as a metaphor for the Sun . The "blind" red horse probably refers to a Reddish Sun that is hidden - cannot be seen...
**Red Horse Solar mythology is a fascinating area of research...Red Horse symbolism may hold some vital clues to the Inner Sun of Earth .
This website suggests that the story of Helios maybe correlated with the story of Rishrashwa from the Rig Veda .
***One more important thing - I am repeatedly getting ERROR 404 , when I try to dig deeper into this topic...hmm AHA !! :))
