GĪTAVIDYĀDHARA   A great musician among the gandharvas. When he found that sage Pulastya had no liking for music he teased the sage by making the sounds of a boar. The enraged sage cursed him and turned him into a boar. He got relief from the curse when Ikṣvāku killed him and Gītavidyādhara became his old self again. [Chapter 46, Sṛṣṭi Khaṇḍa, Padma Purāṇa] .
