Indrajit or
Meghanada was a prince of
Lanka and a conqueror of Indra Loka (heaven). He was mentioned in the Indian epic
Ramayana as the son of king
Ravana. Indrajit played an active role in the great war between
Rama and Ravana. He was said to be invincible in battle because of a
Yajna he used to perform before every battle. He was a mighty
Atimaharathi. He is considered as the most powerful and the only warrior ever had the three ultimate weapons of Trimurti, i.e.
Brahmanda astra,
Vaishnava astra, and
Pashupatastra. He even twice defeated
Rama and
Lakshman. Indrajit killed 670 million
Vanara's in a single day, nearly exterminated the entire half man-half monkey race.
