Vasiṣṭha said: On seeing Rāma who was extremely terrible in battle and who was comparable to Kāla, the annihilator, that warrior of great vigour who was an expert in all kinds of weapons and miraculous missiles and who was seated in the chariot, discharged a volley of arrows and created a network with them all round the leading member of Bhṛgu’s family. For a short while, the son of Jamadagni became covered with arrows.
