Goodreads asked Digvijay Shahi:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Digvijay Shahi The importance of the teacher-student relationship in ancient Indian mythology is unparalleled. There are stories of student archers who have given up their thumbs for their teachers and students who have been cursed for life for a trivial mistake. The value of education and teachers is amazing in the Hindu mythological texts, apparently forgotten in the modern system. On national teacher's day (5th of Sep), I got the idea of compiling a few of these stories for a quick read.
