Dadhichi was the son of [[Atharvan]], a sage and his wife [[Chitti]](Bhaagvat Puraan, 4/1), who was the son of [[Brahma]].He performed severe penances, the power of which increased daily. Seeing this, [[Indra]] sent the Apsara [[Alambusha]] to break his penance. When Dadhichi saw her, his seeds fell into the river [[Saraswati]]. In due course, Saraswati gave birth to a son, who was called [[Saraswat]]. When Shiv was not invited to [[Daksh|Daksh's]] sacrifice, Dadhichi saw with his Yogic power what would happen, and warned Daksh. Unable to defeat the demon [[Vritra]], Indra approached Brahma, who told him that a weapon made out of the bones of Dadhichi could help him kill Vritra. At the request of the gods, Dadhichi readily gave up his life and from his bones, the Vajra was made, and Indra was successful in killing Vritra.
