Kunti's heart was filled with joy, knowing that the Kuru family would no longer be torn apart by conflicts. However, a profound sense of guilt lingered within her regarding Karna. Determined to rectify her past, she made the decision to reveal the truth about her firstborn to her family.
While Karna and Madirakshi made their way towards the grand Mahadev temple for a special puja, Kunti saw an opportune moment to divulge her secret. She gathered all her family members in the private sabha griha of the Kuru palace.
"What does Kunti wish to tell us?" Dhritarashtra inquired, his curiosity piqued.
"I am uncertain, my lord," replied Gandhari.
Bhishma had an inkling that Kunti was about to disclose a monumental truth. Hoping for a favorable outcome, he silently prayed that everything would unfold smoothly.
Soon, Kunti entered the room, her face devoid of any emotion.
"Kunti, what is it that you wish to share with us?" Gandhari asked gently.
"Sister, today I intend to reveal my greatest truth, the secrets of my past that have remained unknown to all," Kunti said, her eyes shimmering with tears.
"Dear daughter, are you certain about this decision? I am already aware of your secret. It was not your fault; it was merely the circumstances that led you to make that choice. I stand by you in this matter. I will support you," Bhishma reassured her.
"Thank you, respected father," Kunti expressed her gratitude.
Tension filled the air after Bhishma's words. Sahadeva sensed that something significant was about to unfold.
"Sister-in-law, please proceed with your revelation," Vidur urged.
"Allow me to narrate, Vidur. When I was seventeen years old, I served the great sage Maharishi Durvasa. As a result of my selfless service, he bestowed upon me five verses, each possessing the power to summon any deity I desired, who, in turn, would bless me with a child of my choosing," Kunti explained.
"We are aware of this, mother," Yudhishthira interjected.
"Allow me to continue. Maharishi Durvasa also advised me not to invoke those verses until after my marriage. However, one day, a month later, my mother instructed me to perform a puja dedicated to the Sun God twice daily. As the evening approached and the sun began its descent, I was captivated by the enchanting scene. Suddenly, the verses came to my mind, and out of curiosity, I decided to test their efficacy," Kunti recounted with teary eyes.
