Teaching

Even though Krishna is the teacher is the one who ends up learning the most. He learns from the various characters that are introduced into his life. Firstly the mystic. From the mystic he learns that there is something more to life then just death. He learns that after you die your soul still goes on and he ends up believing things that he would never have believed in before. When his wife dies he changes his perspective of life and this is what ultimately enables him to find his inner-peace.

The medium teaches him about spirituality and teaches them the dead are still there. In the beginning he believes that the medium is not real because it calls his daughter 'Radha.' But when the prediction about the 'sandalwood box' and his daughter going to school becomes reality he believes in this more and ends up learning about communcation with the dead as he can finally speak with his wife.

From the headmaster of his daughter's school he learns the importance of keeping your mind young and learns how important it is to not grow up. Krishna is fascinated by the childs mind and how children can create lengthy discussions from a childrens book such as the 'bison and the tiger.' Additionally he learns to accept different people. The headmaster is quite unorthodox because of his family and other aspects of his life but Krishna accepts the headmaster and considers him to be a friend.
