Shivaji was devoted to his mother Jijabai, who was deeply religious. His studies of the Hindu epics, the "Ramayana" and the "Mahabharata", also influenced his lifelong defence of Hindu values. He was deeply interested in religious teachings, and regularly sought the company of Hindu saints. Shahaji, meanwhile had married a second wife, Tuka Bai from the Mohite family. Having made peace with the Mughals, ceding them six forts, he went to serve the Sultanate of Bijapur. He moved Shivaji and Jijabai from Shivneri to Pune and left them in the care of his "jagir" administrator, Dadoji Konddeo, who has been credited with overseeing the education and training of young Shivaji.
