Yudhistira said - I have heard Agastya had drunk up the ocean. How did that happen?
Lomesh continued - In the earlier days, there was a asura called Vritta. He managed to create an army of ferocious Danavas and asuras and with he attacked all. Indra, leading the Gods went to Brahma and asked how would they be relieved from this menace.
Brahma said I had been thinking of this for a long time. This asura will not be destroyed by any ordinary weapon. Approach the sage Dadhichi. If he is pleased with you, he will donate his body to you. Use his bones then to make a weapon called the Vajra, and using that, Indra is to kill the asura.
The Gods went to Dadhichi, who asked them the reason for their visit. When the Gods expressed their wish, Dadhichi gladly left his body.
