Gods Visit Dadhicha and Obtain His BonesCh. 395
The gods, led by Narayana, arrive at Dadhicha's hermitage on the banks of the Sarasvati — a place so beautiful it resembles heaven. They bow at his feet and ask for a boon: his bones. Dadhicha is delighted. He gives up his life willingly, and the gods carry his bones to Tvashtar, who fashions the vajra — the weapon that will shatter the enemies of heaven.
