I met him first when he came to our
hostel room. My roommate, whom I know only for few days, introduced me to his father.
The person was having a pleasant
smile, wore spectacles and was wearing a simple, light coloured shirt. He looked
like a bank employee to me.
I was aware that my roommate was
going through a tough phase in his life and his father came to support him, all
the way from Delhi
I came back after 3 weeks and there
was dramatic change in the hostel room. There were quotes from Wordsworth
pasted on walls and my roommate’s table and shelf was neatly arranged.
When I met him in the evening, he
was beaming with happiness and he seemed calm and composed!!!
When I was leaving to Utter Pradesh, he was
depressed and was at the verge of ending his studies. I could easily conclude
that it was his father who caused such a dramatic change in him. So I became
eager to know more about his father.
When I mentioned the dramatic
influence his father's visit had on him. He agreed with me that his father
helped him to overcome the crisis .My roommate also informed that his father is
a person to whom many of the students discuss their problems as he is good at
counseling.
My roommate informed me that his
father's name is Dr.K.Ravi .Contrary to my assumption of him a bank employee,
he was actually a Scientist. I realized that he is not a medical doctor and he
is a PhD holder in physiology. Passed his Post Graduation from India India
to be part of a prestigious institute in India
While searching articles in Pubmed
database for research studies my roommate suggested searching for
"K.Ravi".When I put "K.Ravi" as key word came more than 100
articles!!!And all of them in leading international journals!! It was an
inspiring sight. . It was exciting to know that he is one of the world renowned
experts in bronchial receptors.
.
It was quite obvious from all these
information that Dr.Ravi is “a scientist as well as a doctor of minds”. He is
one of my key inspirers to do research and to publish articles. I dream of a
day when I too publish some articles in leading journals and to see my name
while searching in Pubmed database.
