In this fascinating episode, we explore The Curse of Brahma — a story filled with pride, truth, and humility. Once, Lord Brahma, the great Creator of the universe, grew proud and wanted everyone to worship him. But his pride led him to tell an untruth — and that changed everything. When Lord Shiva, the Lord of Truth, appeared as a blazing pillar of light, Brahma tried to outshine him. The sacred Ketaki flower became part of this tale too — a witness to Brahma’s mistake.

This story beautifully explains why Lord Brahma, despite being one of the three powerful gods of creation, has very few temples dedicated to him today. Through the story, children will journey through glowing skies, divine pillars of light, and timeless lessons about honesty and humility.

Takeaways for Kids:
Honesty always shines brightest: Just like Lord Shiva’s pillar of light, truth can never be hidden. Even small lies can dim our inner glow.
Pride can make us forget what’s right: Sometimes, when we feel proud — like getting the highest marks or winning a game — we might forget to stay kind or truthful. Brahma’s story reminds us to stay grounded.
Admitting mistakes makes us stronger: Brahma realized his error and bowed humbly before Lord Shiva. Saying “I was wrong” or “I’m sorry” helps us grow braver and wiser.
Every action has meaning: The Ketaki flower was once banned from worship for helping in a lie. But just like the flower, we can all make better choices next time and regain trust.
True greatness lies in humility: No matter how powerful or talented we are, it’s kindness, honesty, and respect that make us truly divine.

This episode invites kids to reflect on how truth and humility light up not just gods, but all of us — because the brightest light is the one that shines from within.
