Question
The husband of Suwarna showed his expertise with these objects by stopping a dog from barking without injuring it. During the struggle against Mayasura (“muh-YAH-soo-ruh”), Shiva fashioned Mount Mandara and Vasuki into one of these objects. A man made guru dakshina on behalf of Dronacharya (“DROH-nah-CHAR-yuh”) by mutilating himself to reduce his skill with these objects. Ekalavya was a master with these objects, another of which is made of sugarcane and bees and used by the god Kama. During a swayamvara (“SWAH-yum-vuh-ruh”), King Janaka challenges princes to a feat involving one of these objects belonging to Shiva, the Pinaka. In another swayamvar, one of these weapons named Gandiva (“GAHN-dee-vuh”) is used against the eye of a fish to win the hand of Draupadi (“DROH-puh-dee”). For 10 points, name this primary weapon of both Rama and Arjuna. ■END■
