Here are some words and others :
'Fatamorgana'
A mirage consisting of multiple images, as of cliffs and buildings, that are distorted and magnified to resemble elaborate castles, often seen near the Straits of Messina.
optical illusion, illusion, vision, delusion, fantasy, figment, imagining, phantasm
Then you have :'wabanaki' which means dawn or morning land - the rising sun.

There is no "Indian word" for it...some Nations/tribes may have words for it, but there is no word covered by the whole race of people.
