Previous: Siddhis-mystic perfections usually acquired by yoga practice and natural to residents of Siddhaloka: becoming small like a particle (anima-siddhi), or lighter than a soft feather (laghima-siddhi), Get anything from everywhere (prapti-siddhi), becoming heavier than the heaviest (mahima-siddhi), create something wonderful or annihilate anything at will (isitva-siddhi), to control all material elements (vasitva-siddhi), possessing such power as will never be frustrated in any desire (prakamya-siddhi), assuming any shape or form one may even whimsically desire (kamavasayita-siddhi). Next: Sikhanḍi-the son of King Drupada, and the rebirth of Amba, the daughter of the King of Kasi. He was born to kill Bhisma, who he hated from his previous life. During the battle of Kuruksetra, he fought in front of Arjuna, while attacking Bhisma. Bhisma dropped his weapons and this allowed Arjuna to fill Bhisma with arrows. Sikhanḍi was later killed by Asvatthama, while awaking from sleep in the Panḍavas camp.
