Then Lord Siva intervened and asked Adisesha to slacken the grip a bit to give Vayu a chance to prove his mettle. Adisesha obeyed, the Wind God threw in all his might, and as a result three pieces of Mount Meru were torn asunder. One chip of the Mount fell at Kalahasti, the second at
Tiruchirapalli and the third in Ceylon.
