Shakuni’s parents always obeyed him. The reason for this was that Shakuni’s dice were made from the spinal cord of his dead father and because of this his father’s soul resided in the dice. It is said that Shakuni’s father told Shakuni before his death that after my death, you make dice out of my bones. The dice made of my bones will always obey you and no one can beat you in gambling in life. That’s why if Shakuni had called the dice six, then only six would have come in the dice.
