Pātālaketu, a demon, used to give trouble to Gālava daily while he used to do penance. Once this demon sent a deep hot breath to the sky and then a horse fell from the sky. Soon an unknown voice from air said, "This is a very strong horse and it would travel many a yojana in an hour." Gālava took that horse and gave it to Ṛtadhvaja. (Vāmana Purāṇa, Chapter 59). - [Previous: c7.37](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.37) - [Next: c7.39](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.39) - [Up: c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7) ## Linked texts (1) - [Vāmanapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.vamana) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.38](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.38) · Pramāṇa
