In this segment, host Sowjanya tells listeners the significance of the Crow in Indian mythology and the role the bird plays even today.

In Indian mythology, the crow holds multifaceted significance across various cultural narratives. Revered in Hinduism, it symbolizes both positive and negative attributes. Lord Shani, associated with the planet Saturn, is often depicted with a crow, representing vigilance and spirituality. On the contrary, the crow is linked with ancestors and foretelling in some folk beliefs. Additionally, the Mahabharata features a pivotal event where a crow disrupts Yudhishthira's attempt to quench the thirst of a dying person, leading to a curse. This dichotomy illustrates the crow's portrayal as an omen, messenger, and harbinger of both blessings and misfortune in Indian mythology.
