Abstract: A new interpretation is introduced for MOND based on the Sciama's interpretation of Mach principle and an Unruh like effect, in the context of a generalized equivalence principle. It is argued that in a locally accelerated frame with acceleration $a$ the appearance of a Rindler horizon may give rise to a constant acceleration $a_0$ as the local properties of cosmological horizon or Hubble length. The total gravitational acceleration inside this frame becomes the combination of $a$ with $a_0$. For $agg{a}_0$, the conventional gravitational mass $m_g$ interacts with the dominant acceleration as $m_{g}a$ and application of Sciama's interpretation leads to the standard Newtonian dynamics. For $all{a}_0$, however, a reduced gravitational mass $$ interacts with the dominant acceleration as $$ and the application of Sciama's interpretation on this reduced gravitational mass leads to MOND. This introduces a third proposal for MOND: {it The modification of gravitational mass}.
