In Hindu mythology, Garuda had a conflict with Indra, the king of the gods, over the elixir of immortality, or amrita, in order to free his mother from slavery. As the battle ensued, Garuda displayed his incredible power and exceptional strength, overpowering Indra who could not triumph over him. Recognizing Garuda’s strength as god-like, Indra granted respect to Garuda, ultimately leading to the release of Garuda’s mother.
