In the Mahabharata, Krishna cursed Ashwathama with immortality for trying to kill the unborn child of Uttarā, the pregnant daughter of Abhimanyu. Krishna suggested that Ashwathama redirect his weapon to an uninhabited place, but instead he aimed it at the womb of Uttara, ending the Pandava lineage. Krishna then revived the stillborn baby, and Ashwathama was forced to give up the gemstone in the middle of his forehead, which was his source of power. The curse means Ashwathama will live forever with a gaping wound on his forehead. Ashwathama was a Maharathi who fought for the Kauravas against the Pandavas in the Kurukshetra War. He was born with a precious stone on his forehead, which was meant to protect him from demons and spirits.
