Cultural Psychodynamics in Health and Illness

All the Dr D. L. N. Murti Rao Orators so far have been persons who knew Dr D.L.N. Murti Rao personally. Some like Professor N. N. Wig, Professor A. Venkoba Rao and Professor A. Verghcse had been his students. Others like Professor K. C. Dube and Col. Kirpal Singh knew him in course of their professional interactions. I am possibly the first Dr D. L. N. Murti Rao Orator who was not fortunate enough to have known the great man in the flesh. I have, however, been greatly impressed and touched by the high regard bordering on reverence with which he has been held by his students. Many of them, my senior colleagues, like Professor N. N. Wig, Professor A. Venkoba Rao and others I have, in turn, greatly respected and admired and derived guidance and inspiration from.
