Vinatā made a bet with her sister Kadrū. Kadrū won the bet. Vinatā became Kadrū's maid-servant as a result of the bet. To be relieved of this bondage Vinatā's son Garuḍa had to bring Amṛta from Devaloka and give it to Kadrū and her Nāga-sons. Garuḍa agreed and flew up to Heaven to fetch Amṛta. - [Previous: c7.2165](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2165) - [Next: c7.2167](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2167) - [Up: c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2166](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.2166) · Pramāṇa
