In Hinduism, Uchchaihshravas (Sanskrit: उच्चैःश्रवस्, IAST: Uccaiḥśravas) or (Sanskrit: उच्चैःश्रवा, IAST: Uccaiḥśravā), (lit. 'long-ears' or 'neighing aloud'')[1] is a seven-headed flying horse, created during the churning of the milk ocean. It is considered the best of horses, the prototype and the king of the horses.[1] Uchchaihshravas is often described as a vahana ("vehicle") of Indra (the king of the gods), but is also recorded to be the horse of Bali, the king of the asuras (demons). Uchchaihshravas is said to be snow white in colour.
