Reading Notes: Karna


(Boon of Indra To Kunti: Wikimedia Commons)
  • King Juntibhoja adopts his niece Pritha.
  • He gives her the new name of Kunti.
  • There is a sage named Durvasa that stayed with the king for the year.
  • He was known for his bad behavior, so many people avoided him. 
  • Kunti was the only one who befriended Durvasa, so he granted her a mantra.
  • The mantra was that Kunti could invoke any god and hear that god's son.
