#SKRamachandraRao.

NOT MUCH IS KNOWN ABOUT HIM EXCEPT FOR HIS WORKS.
In 1965, the HERO of this thread was the HOD of Clinical Psychology at Nation’s Most Prestigious Neuro Institute @NIMHgov.

Whenever I go through Life History of “Forgotten People”, I question myself, would
they have contributed this much had they knew how future generation treats them? And the next moment I realise that these legends never went after Name & Fame, but concentrated on fulfilling their responsibility for the society.
Ramachandra Rao was a kind of talent which is
found in a million population.
Not only he was an expert in his Professional Field, but also in Ayurveda, Medicine, Vastu, History, Philosophy, Art, Music, and Literature and He Wrote About Everything Mentioned Above and many are available as Digital Records too.
Not only he was
good with pen, but also with Brush & Chisel too, He was also a painter and a sculptor. One of his works is on permanent display at Ravindra Kalakshetra in Bangalore.
Saligrama Krishna Ramachandra Rao was born on September 4, 1925, in Hassan. He spent his early childhood with his
grandparents in Bangalore, where he started school. He also started learning Sanskrit from Agnihotri Yajnavitthalachar, a scholar. This training in Sanskrit would help him write numerous books later in life.
When his grandfather died, he moved to Nanjanagudu where his parents
were staying at the time & Mysore became his educational base from high school onwards.
In 1949 he graduated with a master's degree in psychology from University of Mysore.
He first worked as a research assistant at the Indian Institute of Science, before moving to the
All India Institute of Mental Health (now NIMHANS). By 1965, he had risen to become the head of the department of clinical psychology.
In 1962, while at NIMHANS, he wrote a book The Development of Psychological Thought in India. He also created an Indian version of the
Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) cards and conducted experiments based on them. He was also instrumental in revising the syllabus that was taught at NIMHANS to include aspects of Indian philosophy that had influenced the study of psychology.
He left NIMHANS in 1965 for reasons
unknown, and later worked as a visiting professor in various institutions in Bangalore, lecturing and teaching courses in psychology, indology, philosophy, social work and education.
On February 02nd 2006, Ramachandra Rayaru Journeyed towards Rama’s feet leaving his Wife and
2 Children, sources say that he was working on a thirty-two volume project on the Rigveda in English at the time of his death.
Its our MISFORTUNE that not much is published about this great Kannadiga whose contributions is unparalleled.
Special request to @CTRavi_BJP @BSYBJP @nimmasuresh
