Hook

Ayudhapurusha is not a weapon like a sword or spear. It is the human depiction of any divine weapon like a mace, bow, sword etc. --Redtigerxyz Talk 16:26, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • ALT 2: ... according to Hindu epic Ramayana, Jaya gave birth to fifty powerful magical divine weapons?--Redtigerxyz Talk 16:26, 27 July 2011 (UTC) Looks better: the text says "magical", which is hooky. ... to 50 magical divine weapons?" The ref tag is there for ALT2; does it match with the current pic? Tony (talk) 02:40, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The pic should be excluded. As Gada (mace) is a woman-weapon not part of the weapon-sons of Jaya. --Redtigerxyz Talk 15:48, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
