According to Srimahavishnu's advice devatas asked for the body of Dadichi. Viswakarma prepared a Vajraayudha, a thunderbolt from his bones and as it is invested with the power of Srimahavishnu, it surely killed Vrttrasura.  Vajraayudha was used not only to kill Vrttra but also his followers such as  Namuchi, Sambara, Dvimurdva, Anarva, Puloma, Hayagriva, Sankuchiti, Viprachiti, Ayomuka.

It may be seen that Vajraayuda or thunderbolt was given by Tvashtra Prajapati (the father of Vrttra). One may express a contradiction between what Bhagavatham says and the Vedas. It should be noted that Tvashtra is Vishwakarma himself or the devashilpi who makes the thunderbolt from the bones of Dadhichi rushi.

In the Taitreya Samhita extensive description of Dadichi has not been given, in essence it is said that Tvashtra gave the Vajraayudha and using Dadhichi’s bones or skull symbolically there is no difference.

Dadichi is one of the great rishi among the galaxy of Rishis with great character. The entire Atharva Veda and other corollary scriptures are his greatest gift. His life was full of commitment, sacrifice and the madhu vidya which came from him is brahmaswarupa.
