  Hi,
   
  I just read a letter (2 pages long -with writings on the side also) from a 69 yearold gentleman who still says (after all these years) that getting into PhD is a matter of do or die (for me). He was perhpas the only person in India who really supported my journey westwards and got me involved in fire worship (yagna) and its benefits amidst chantings - Vedas style.
   
  He took me to Aligarh where his real brother in law led a retired life after 30 years as professor of math at Univ of California , Berkeley (who disuaded me from going to US) - he had left India to become a professor there directly (not as a student) after teaching at Aligarh Muslim Univ.  Further, this 69 year old gentleman's real unlce had come westwards as a student and become a professor at Stanford - as the Berkeley professor attested "His uncle was at Stanford and I was at Berkeley " (they are just a few miles apart).
   
  Today I bettered my GRE score substantially (unknown to the old man) and walked back home 2 miles (unlike the last time where I was holed for two weeks in Allahabad 500 miles from home) -esp the verbal section. I did not prepare at all -since I have been tutoring these very things .  
   
  More later.
