Accordingly:—“Now, there was a crest-jewel of kings, named Pavanavega, in the town Pṛthvīpura, and he ruled the country for a long time. At the right time he took the vow under the Ṛṣi Śravaṇasiṃha, practiced severe penance, and at death went to Anuttara. [...] Now Pavanavega’s jīva fell from Anuttara and descended into Queen Subhadrā’s womb. Comfortably asleep, Queen Subhadrā saw then the four great dreams indicating the birth of a Halabhṛt (Balabhadra). [...] �.

There lived a Vidyādhara-king Śukladanta, and his wife, Yaśodharā, maintaining the glory of two families. I am their son, Pavanavega, and I attained youth and acquired the collection of arts gradually. [...]�.
2) Pavanavegā (पवनवेग�) is the wife of Jaṭilakauśika, according to chapter 5.1 [śāntinātha-caritra].—Accordingly:—“[...] On the bank of the Airāvatī in the forest Bhūtaratna, Kapila became the son, Dharmila, of the ascetic, Jaṭilakauśika, who was devoted to penance, and of his wife, Pavanavegā, like the union of the yoke-pin and the yoke. Cherished by the women-ascetics like a tree in the court of the hermitage, the boy Dharmila gradually grew up. After taking initiation at the side of his father as a (Śaiva) ascetic, he began foolish penance, for that was his father’s and mother’s kind. [...]�.
3) Pavanavega (पवनवेग) is the name of a Vidyādhara, according to the Jain Ramayana and chapter 7.2 [Rāvaṇa’s expedition of conquest].—Accordingly, “[...] Realizing that Vaiśravaṇa was free from desire, (Rāvaṇa) asked his forgiveness, bowed to him, and took his car Puṣpaka together with Laṅkā.
