Even Brahmā and Rudra came to see the fight. In a combat with Indra, Vidyutprabha was killed. Vidyuddhvaja saw his father killed, got furious and sent Brahmāstra against Indra who in turn opposed it with Pāśupata. Vidyuddhvaja fainted. Devas sounded the trumpets of victory and left the place. - [Previous: c8.1004](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1004) - [Next: c8.1006](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1006) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1005](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1005) · Pramāṇa
