14✨ The Story of Karna and Shraddh ✨
This is the divine story from the Mahabharata that explains why Shraddh (Pitru Paksha rituals) are performed for our ancestors.
Karna, the great warrior and Danveer (charitable king), reaches heaven after his death but is offered gold and jewels instead of food. When he asks for food, he learns that in his lifetime he donated wealth but never offered food and water to his ancestors. Moved by his truth and compassion, Indra grants him 15 days on Earth to perform Shraddh, which is why Pitru Paksha is observed with devotion even today.
🙏 This story reminds us of the importance of honoring and feeding our ancestors with love and respect.
