In Hinduism

Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)

Patantī (पतन्ती) refers to the “striking down (of thunderbolts)”, according to the Ahirbudhnyasaṃhitā, belonging to the Pāñcarātra tradition which deals with theology, rituals, iconography, narrative mythology and others.—Accordingly, “An abnormal modification caused by a aggressive ritual against Kings, occurring at the improper time, dreadful and all-reaching, is characterized by the these signs: Suddenly horses, elephants and ministers perish, the king himself suffers from a serious illness which has seized [his] body; terrifying thunderbolts (patantī-aśana) strike his dominion; [...] from such and other signs he should understand that the enemy is performing a aggressive ritual”.
