In Hindu mythology, Sampati (Sanskrit: सम्पाति, sampāti) was one of the two sons of Aruna the brother of Garuda. Sampati lost his wings when he was a child

Sampathi and Jatayu got involved in competition in childhood of reaching the sun first. Sampati flew ahead and burnt his wings. He fell down near the sea shore.

Griddhraj Parvat, situated in Satna district in Madhya Pradesh, is believed to be the birthplace of ‘Sampati’. [1]
