Brahmastra (ब्रह्मास्त्र)




Brahmastra (Brahma Astra) was  considered the deadliest weapon. It was created by Lord Brahma. It was said that when the Brahmastra was discharged, there was neither a counter attack nor a defense that could stop it.
                         
                      The Brahmastra never missed its mark and had to be used with very specific intent against an individual enemy or army, as the target would face complete annihilation. It was believed to be obtained by meditating on the Lord Brahma.  It could only be used once in a lifetime. The user would have to display immense amounts of mental concentration.

Some Events when Brahmastra was used -
  • Vishvamitra used it against Vasishta.
  • In the Ramayana a Brahmastra is used by Shri Rama as the "final blow" against Rakshasa Ravana during their battle in Lanka.
  • In Mahabharata, Karna was planning to use the Brahmastra to fight Arjuna, but because of Parasurama's curse he was unable to do so.

There are some more events when brahmastra was used to threaten.
