	The Unicorn and the Jorge
		Vivasvat, also referred to as the Solar Stallion, was married to Saranya, who gave birth to twins.
		Vivasvat took his stallion form and pursued her.
		She later gave birth to the immortal twins known as the Ashvins, who were expert horsemen and were considered to be the horse gods.

		Ludwig (III,333;, 392) explains Vivasvat of the AV as 'the bright sky beyond which Yama's realm is situated' (I, p.89: 'In fact the word vivasvat has become in later literature a name for the sun.
		Manu was the offspring of Vivasvat and the woman resembling Saran.yu_ and all men are descended from Manu; the two twins: Yama and Yami_, but dva_ mithuna_, may mean two pairs of twins, Yama and Yami_, the first pair and the As'vins the second].
		Thus the sun god is certainly called Vivasvat already in the R.V...Sarama_, the mother of the two Sa_rameyas, would be a mythological synonym for Us.as, the mother of the sun and the moon.

	Horse
		She left a woman identical to herself in her place, and Vivasvat could not tell the difference.
		Vivasvat (also known as Visvakarman) noticed the deception, and taking the form of a horse, he found the mare who subsequently gave birth to the heavenly twins, the Ashvins.
		Vishvakarman: Vivasvat is also known as Vishvakarman, the divine architect whose role it was to fulfill the compulsive construction aspirations of Lord Indra.

	Yama
		He is the son of Surya (Sun) and twin brother of Yami, or Yamuna, traditionally the first human pair in the Vedas.
		He was also worshiped as a son of Vivasvat and Saranya.
		He is the father of Yudhisthira, the oldest brother of the 5 Pandavas (Karna was born prior to Kunti's wedlock, so technically Karna is Yudhthira's older brother) and is said to have incarnated as Vidura by some accounts in the Mahabharata period.

	Re: The Vedas (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		It is also possible that the reference here is really to an ancient Rishi named Vivasvat and not the Sun or sun-god.
		For example, in ancinet times, when the Gita was spoken, Vivasvat could have meant also the sun just as today the name Surya or Suraj means the sun.
		Same thing is probably true with respect to Vivasvat named (human) rishi in the Gita (#4.1).

	[No title]
		Exoteric authorities agree that Vivasvat is a name for the sun; that after him came Manu, and his son was Ikshvaku.
		Although Vivasvat as a name for the sun reveals nothing to our Western ears, there is a great truth hidden behind it, just as today there is as great a mystery behind our solar orb.
		These appearances among men for the purpose of restoring the equilibrium are not the same as the rule of Vivasvat and Manu first spoken of, but are the coming to earth of Avatars or Saviors.

	Studies in The Secret Doctrine - First Series #7
		To begin with the Bhagavad-Gita: Sri Krishna says that He himself taught it to Vivasvat and it is described as a ”yoga” which is imperishable.
		This Vivasvat is correspondentially related to the Sun; Vivasvat is Hiranyagarbha Brahma in another text; and both stand for the Deity manifesting this Solar Universe of ours.
		A further subdivision is reached when the Deity of the Race imparts the yoga to His own son, Ikshvaku, the founder of the Indian Solar Dynasty, who leaves the inheritance to a line of Divine Kings, until in the course of time it was forgotten.

		This earliest recorded invasion of Afghanistan, that of the Aryans crossing the ancient Oxus River, is reported as follows: "Yama the king, son of Vivasvat, the assembler of men, departed to the mighty streams and explored the way for many.
		Yama was the first who found for us the way.

	New Trends in the Interpretation of the Vedas By Thaneswar Sarmah
		The author emphasizes the fixation of date of Devapi, whom he claims to be historically connected with Santanu, taking the Kali Era into account.
		There are some papers like Indra and Trisiras, the Rbhus in the Vedas, Saranyu and Vivasvat, etc., which, according to him, are mythical accounts.
		But his reconstruction of the lives of Dadhyanc, Ucathya, Samvarta, Trita, Subandhu and his brothers, King Tryaruna appears to be convincing these men, he says, actually lived on this earth.

		We meet in the Vedanta-texts with certain stories such as 'Pratardana the son of Divodasa came to the beloved abode of Indra,' &c., and similar ones.
		The texts rather single out special stories only as suitable for that performance; on the general injunction quoted above there follows an injunction defining which stories are to be told, 'King Manu, the son of Vivasvat,' &c.
		The stories told in the Vedanta-texts do not therefore form parts of the pariplava performance, but are connected with injunctions of meditations.
