The Ashwini Legend
The sun god Surya's wife Saranyu could not bear his blazing light and fled north in the form of a mare. Surya took the form of a stallion and found her. From their union were born the Ashwini Kumars — physicians of the gods, bringers of instant healing. They arrive with the first light of dawn, driving away darkness and disease.
