Go all of you to the realm of Yama!" / Sanatkumāra said: / Thus addressed, O best of brahmins, they then searched the entire three worlds, / and caused this whole earth to be dug up. / Having then seen the elephants of the directions and seers of strict vows, / holding the earth, seeing and bowing down to them all, / they perceived the sage Kapila sleeping in a pool of water, / and near him they saw the horse; then, enraged, they thought: / Driven by the destined end, ripe in time, wishing to die, / through their father's curse, they then spoke to Kapila, the best of sages: / "This wicked-minded one is the thief who stole our excellent horse and is asleep. / Let us all lead him today to our father's presence." / Sanatkumāra said: / Then, all bound by the noose of time, very mighty, / and under the control of destiny, they struck him with their feet. / Afflicted by them, he, enraged, then suddenly released / the breath held back for ten thousand years, like the king of serpents. / That breath, of the nature of fire, having issued from his mouth, / burned all the sons of Sagara, who were bereft of righteousness and virtue. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.13.3\_143](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda.7.13.3_143) - [Next: 7.13.3\_145](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda.7.13.3_145) - [Up: 7.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda.7.13) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda~en-mt.7.13.3_144) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda.7.13.3_144](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.skanda.7.13.3_144) · Pramāṇa
