Arybhatta had always been a very curious child. He loved learning and he loved knowing about new things. That is why the sky boggled him so much. It was so vast and it was everywhere. It was there when you woke up, it was there when you went to sleep, it was there as you grew up and it stays there even after you are long gone from this planet.&nbsp; So then, why was it that we knew so little about the sky and what lies within. He was so restless to know. He was not just a curious little boy, but a very intelligent one too. He was very well aware that the answer to all his questions will only be found once he knows everything that has been found.&nbsp; That is why he worked hard and studied a lot. That is how his horizons expanded and he came to learn more. His findings were well ahead of his time. He found the concept of zero by thinking that even nothingness has a quantity, the lunar and the solar eclipse, rotation of the earth and much more. From this, we learn that if we are curious to know about something and are passionate about it, then we must work hard.
