Dadhichi.
According to legend, thousands
of years ago, a demon had stolen
all the water in the world. Innocent
people were suffering and dying
without water. This demon could not
be defeated by any ordinary weapon
made of ordinary material like wood,
metal, etc. Something extra-ordinary
was required. It was learnt that the
sage Dadhichi had bones of such
extra-ordinary power. But how could
one ask for the bones of a living man?
Sage Dadhichi was a noble person. He
himself laid down his life and gave his
own bones to help the people. Indra-
vajra, Indra's weapon of thunderbolts.
was fashioned from these bones and
the demon was defeated.
Just as the Indra-vajra derived
power from Sage Dadhichi's bones.
the Indian military derives its strength
and power from the sacrifice of the
bravest of the brave the Param Vir
Chakra holders.
