Dussāvudha
Dussāvudha:One of the four most effective weapons found in the world.
It belonged to ālavaka.If he threw it up into the sky,no rain would fall for twelve years; if he let it fall on the earth,all plants and trees would die and nothing would grow for twelve years; if he threw it into the sea,the sea would completely dry up; it could make Sineru crumble into pieces.ālavaka hurled it at the Buddha,but it fell at the Buddha’s feet and remained there as a rug.
It is also called Vatthāvudha,and was evidently made of cloth
(SNA.i.225f).
