(Thunderbolt). The famous weapon of Indra.

The making of this weapon.

In olden days a fierce asura named 痴峁泃谤补 was born. The 碍腻濒补办别测补蝉 and many other asuras became his followers. They began to create havoc in the world, and cause harm to the Devas. At last under the leadership of Indra, the Devas went to 叠谤补丑尘腻 and informed him of their grievances and requested for advice as to the way of killing 痴峁泃谤补. 叠谤补丑尘腻 told them that only with a weapon made of the bone of the hermit 顿补诲丑墨肠补, could 痴峁泃谤腻蝉耻谤补 be killed. The Devas went to the bank of the river 艢辞峁嘺 and saw the hermit 顿补诲丑墨肠补, who was the foremost of munificent men, doing penance there. Indra told him the purpose of their visit. He told the Devas to take his bone, if it was useful to them. Saying this he forsook his body. The Devas took the bones of the hermit and gave them to 痴颈艣惫补办补谤尘腻 who made a powerful weapon with them and gave that to Indra. They named the weapon the 'thunderbolt.' (惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补 Vana Parva, Chapter 100).

The face of 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补 was cut.

Once Indra was defeated by 狈补谤补办腻蝉耻谤补. He went to the 贬颈尘腻濒补测补蝉 and hid himself there. Unable to see their King Indra, the devas went to 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补. When Indra knew this, he thought that 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补 had taken possession of the world of the gods. So he came and fought with 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补. The thunderbolt of Indra touched the face of 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补 and wounded him. From the blood which flowed from the face of 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补 two noble men appeared who eventually became warriors of 厂耻产谤补丑尘补峁噛补. (碍补迟丑腻蝉补谤颈迟蝉腻驳补谤补, L膩v膩峁嘺kalambaka, 罢补谤补峁単补 6).

Daily thunderbolt.

In Vi峁ａ箛u Pur膩峁嘺, 础峁兣沘 1, Chapter 5 and 础峁兣沘 2, Chapter 8, a process by which thunderbolt is made daily in the evening from the water particles thrown by Brahmins when they recite the spell 骋腻测补迟谤墨, is described.

In the evening, the fierce giants called the Mandehas wish to eat the Sun. 笔谤补箩腻辫补迟颈 had given them a curse that though their bodies would not perish they would daily meet with death. So there is a fight between these giants and the sun daily in the evening. At that time the Brahmins recite the spell 骋腻测补迟谤墨 with the Brahmapervading syllable 'OM,' and throw up water. This water becomes the Vajra weapon, and burns the giant.

The thunderbolt became a tiger.

The hermits 狈腻谤补诲补 and Parvata once went to the palace of the King 厂峁浢眏补测补. The King worshipped them and served them for a long time, as a result of which a son was born to him. Indra decided to lessen the superior power of these hermits. Once the son of the King, who was a mere boy, was playing in the forest. At the instruction of Indra, the thunderbold took the form of a tiger and went to the forest and killed the boy. 厂峁浢眏补测补 became very sad. 狈腻谤补诲补 and Parvata brought the boy to lite again and gave him to the King.
