Unfortunately for the Vasus, the cow was owned by the sage Vashishta who learned through his ascetic powers that the Vasus had stolen it and immediately cursed them to be born on earth as mortals.
Desafortunadamente para los Vasus, la vaca era propiedad del sabio Vasishta que se dio cuenta —mediante sus poderes místicos producto de su ascetismo— que los Vasus la habían robado.
