It was the 17th day of Kurukshetra war. Fight between Arjuna and Karna
took place. In the battle, Karna was severely injured and lying down on
ground.
That time, a beggar came near him asking for alms. The begger is none other
than Krishna himself. He has come to check the generosity of Karna.
As Karna is lying down on ground, injured and bleeding all over his body,
begger had asked him for alms. Karna didn't say no.
With great difficulty, Karna took out the 2 golden teeth from his
mouth and gave them to begger.
But begger was furious seeing that Karna is giving the blood laden golden
teeth as alms.
He refused to accept the alms. That time, Karna just pierced the ground
from one of his arrows. Water came as fountain. In that water, Karna
washed the teeth and then presented them to begger.
During his last times also, Karna didn't leave the habit of generosity.
