Thanks, Jethro, for your validation of my post and my past.

RE: Pakistan and Rawat's Dad : I had a quick look on the EPO history area ( I think it was ) and in an  obscure book re: history of perfect masters there is a reference to Shri Hans starting out in Lahore ( Pakistan ) and moving to Delhi in 1930 ( because of the fighting pre- independence ?). I also have recollections of him talking about making the journey on foot (?)

All very long ago, but I just thought thats its an interesting Pakistan/Moslem connection.  ( Please see private message )
