"Vinatā, take me to the island of Rāmaṇīyaka in the middle of the ocean. It is a beautiful place to stay. Let your son, Garuḍa, take my sons to that place." Vinatā took Kadrū and Garuḍa took her children during the journey. Garuḍa rose high up in the air nearing the sun and the serpents began to feel the heat unbearable and began to get charred. Kadrū then prayed to Indra and the latter then sent a heavy downpour of rains. This saved the serpents from being burnt to death and they reached the island of Rāmaṇīyaka safe.
