Source: De Gruyter: A Buddhist Ritual Manual on AgricultureVipralāpa (विप्रलाप) refers to “crying out (seeking for a refuge)”, 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 Viṣṇudatta attempted to enchant a Nāga]: “[...] The Nāga in great pain threw a great fire rain shower upon the Brahmin’s body enveloping it. The Brahmin discontinued the fire oblation, became defenceless, deprived of a refuge and last resort and there was nobody to save him. He started to cry out (vipralāpa) seeking refuge, defence and a last resort at the Bhagavān. [...]”.
