"Chiranjivi" refers to a concept in Hindu mythology that describes beings who are immortal and live for eternity. The term is derived from Sanskrit, where "chira" means eternal and "jivi" means living. In Hindu tradition, there are seven notable Chiranjivi, including Ashwatthama, Bhishma, Vibhishana, and Markandeya, who are believed to have been granted immortality due to their unique circumstances or divine blessings. These Chiranjivi are often mentioned in ancient texts like the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. Their stories serve as moral lessons and highlight the virtues of righteousness, devotion, and sacrifice. The concept of Chiranjivi emphasizes the belief in life beyond death and the enduring nature of certain souls in the cosmic cycle.
