Most famous Krishna Sudama friendship Story<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

There are many stories in Hindu mythology about Lord Krishna and his childhood friend Sudama. They tell us many morals and the true meaning of friendship. One of the most famous stories about them is when Sudama went to meet Lord Krishna after he became the King. Sudama was a very poor man living with his wife. He used to ask for bhiksha every day and live on that money. It was a tough life. When no money or food was left in his house, Sudhama’s wife told him to visit Lord and King Krishna to ask for help. Sudama was against the idea of doing so because he was shy and embarrassed about his living conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n

He told his wife, “He is a King now, and I am a man of no possessions. We were friends when we studied together. I do not know if he will even recognise me now”. However, Sudama’s wife still insisted by reasoning that Lord Krishna is a kind king. Sudama knew they had nothing to offer Lord Krishna. But his wife gave him the last three palmfuls of rice in a small bag.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When Sudama reached Lord Krishna’s palace gates, the guards did not let him enter. After asking about his identity, they informed Krishna, “A feeble man in rags is at the front of the palace, Lord. He calms to be your old friend. His name is Sudama”. As soon as Lord Krishna heard that, he ran to the gates of his palace and embraced Sudama. Krishna saw Sudhama’s feet bleeding with a lot of cuts. Sudama had travelled with no footwear due to his poverty.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Once they both entered Lord Krishna’s palace, he made Sudama sit on his throne and washed Sudama’s feet all by himself. Playful Krishna asked Sudama what he had gotten for him. Sudama showed him the small potli of rice and said, “This is all I can offer you as I have nothing else to give”. Lord Krishna understood Sudama’s financial and living conditions. But he was overjoyed and started eating the rice. After two palms of rice, Lord Krishna’s wife, Rukmini stopped him and said, “This is enough. You should leave some for us”.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After the visit, Sudama returned home. He had asked for nothing from Lord Krishna and was worried about his future and how his wife would be angry. After reaching his place, he saw a huge palace instead of a small hut. Without even asking, Krishna had given him a lot of wealth as he was eating the rice. The first palm of rice represented the wealth of Swarg Lok, and the second palm of rice represented the wealth of Prithvi Lok. The last palmful was Vaikuntha Lok’s wealth. Lord Krishna had made Sudama the Lord of 2 worlds and wanted to give the 3rd world to him as well. This is the most beautiful Krishna and Sudama friendship story.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
