i also love karna. but after reading this story i feel everything happens for a reason and karma always follows one.
i always wondered before why shri krishna never helped out karna and give a better direction to his life but i guess now i understood it's because he wanted karn's soul to be liberated. god had a different purpose of him.

Is this demon and king dambodhbhava the same people?
Because in XCVI section, Udyog Parva, a rishi called as Jamadgani's son/Ram( so i would assume Lord Parshuram) tells duryodhan, the story of nar-narayana and king Dambodhbhava... No mention of him being this demon though.

loved the story as i love to read story

I found this: http://chiraan.com/2010/04/19/story-of-karna-as-told-by-narada/

When the legendary donor Karna died in the epic Mahabharata war, his soul transcended to heaven, where he was offered gold and jewels as food. However, Karna needed real food to eat and asked Indra, the lord of heaven, the reason for serving gold as food. Indra told Karna that he had donated gold all his life, but had never donated food to his ancestors in Shraddha. Karna said that since he was unaware of his ancestors, he never donated anything in their memory. To make amends, Karna was permitted to return to earth for a 15-day period, so that he could perform Shraddha and donate food and water in their memory. This period is now known as Pitru Paksha.
