मृगांकक / MṚGĀṄKAKA. A sword. Once kubera cursed a yakṣa and making him a lion posted it to guard the palace- gates of mahābali. He said he would be released from the curse when any man on earth defeated it. Once a brahmin warrior named śrīdatta defeated this lion and at once the lion changed into a yakṣa and the yakṣa presented śrīdatta with the sword named mṛgāṅkaka. (Kathāpīṭhalambaka, kathāsaritsāgara).
