Story Of Ashwatthama From Mahabharat - Ashwatthama's Curse 

The Story Of Ashwatthama From Mahabharat - Ashwatthama's Curse
Although not a central character in the Mahabharata, the story of Ashwatthama, Drona’s son, is a compelling one. Having access to powerful weapons and nearly being responsible for the deaths of millions, Ashwatthama was a warrior lacking maturity and forethought, with an inflated ego and an extremely hot head. Ashwathama is revered as one of the eight Chiranjeevis, along with Vyasa, Hanuman, Parashurama, Vibhishana, Mahabali, Kripacharya, and Sage Markandeya. Born to Dronacharya and Kripi after many years of penance for a child, his birth was extraordinary. He came into the world neighing like a horse instead of crying. This ear-piercing noise was heard across the world, resulting in him being named Ashwatthama: ‘the sacred voice which relates to that of a horse.’ Accompanying his birth was a celestial voice proclaiming that Ashwatthama was blessed by Lord Shiva. Ashwathama is considered an avatar of Kaal (Doom), Krodh (Anger), Yam (Death), and Lord Shiva. Certainly blessed, the boy inexplicably had a ‘Mani’ (gem) on his forehead that protected him from evil spirits. He was immune to exhaustion and all manner of evil spirits because of the "Mani" (gem) he sported on his forehead from birth.
