Born in the little town of Udupi in South Kanara, Meera Sashital has been a freelance writer for over 50 years. Based in Mumbai, she has written for a broad spectrum of newspapers and magazines in India. A philosophy graduate from Calcutta University, circumstances compelled her to give up her dream of further education for a time. But, always ready to face life's challenges in a positive spirit, she did go on to complete her Masters in Sociology, ten years later. She also gained her Sangit Visharad from the Bengal Music College, Calcutta, and utilizing her knack for languages, she learnt both French and German. Through the years, her love of writing has remained her abiding passion. Meera has authored four books prior to this one -Gems from Mythology; Rosary of Saints; Strewn Pearls and Moral Legends from the Epics and Puranas.
