Wife of King Ritadhwaja. Once the demon Patalaketu carried her away to the nether world;Patala and King Ritadhwaja rescued her. (Glossary for the Vahinis)

Madalasa gave birth to four sons. When each son was born, she did not desire that they should study, go abroad, earn great wealth and acquire name and fame. From the time the child was in the cradle, she taught the child the ideal of Vairagya (renunciation). She sang a lullaby for the child, treating Pranava Mantra  as the cradle, the Mahavakya ‘Tat tvam asi’ (Thou art That) as the bed, awareness as the cord, drawing the cradle. The four Vedas were the chains for the cradle. Rearing each child in this manner, she sent him to the forest telling him that he will find real rest there. (SSS Vol.29, p. 92)
