Vijṛmbhitavilokita (विजृम्भितविलोकित) refers to the “expanded (Garuḍa) glance”, according to the Vajratuṇḍasamayakalparāja, an ancient Buddhist ritual manual on agriculture from the 5th-century (or earlier), containing various instructions for the Sangha to provide agriculture-related services to laypeople including rain-making, weather control and crop protection.—Accordingly, [after hostile Nāgas released winds, thunderbolts, etc.] “Then the Bhagavān entered the concentration called the Expanded Garuḍa Glance (vijṛmbhitavilokita), [also] called the Miracle of the Garland of Enveloping Flame. Immediately after he had entered the concentration, two rays shone forth. Merely upon shining forth, the bodies of all Nāgas flamed up”.
