Vāmana said :-"You have given me three feet of ground. I have measured two feet of ground. Show me the place to measure the third step. I have measured the earth with one step and the heaven with the second step. You have seen it. If you cannot keep your promise you had better go down to Pātāla." Bali requested him to place the third step on his head. Vāmana placed his foot on the head of Mahābali and thrust him down to Pātāla.
