On 28 Mar 1996,  dmenon at pacific.net.sg (Das Menon) asked: "Does anyone know
the sloka that is used to describe (or help remember) the Lords of the
eight directions like indra, vAyu etc.?"

The Amara-ko;sa (6.4 or verse 149) has: indro vahni.h pit.r-patir nair.rto
varu.no marut / kubera ii;sa.h pataya.h puurvaadiinaa.m di;saa.m krammat //
