Great short portrait of Tagore. I know him from my childhood and I am in my 50s now. There is no end to discovering him anew with every encounter. Kabuliwala was a short story we read in middle school - such a hauntingly touching story of empathy. Thanks for your work to share Tagore's genius with the open world out there.

@@Fiction_Beast - need to clarify. It didn't remind me of Tagore. It reminded me of the short story Kabuliwala and my emotions after reading it in my childhood. Most of us Bengalis live Tagore. He comes to us almost on a everyday basis. I am into music and I could say in last 3 years I probably arranged 10 of his songs on different instruments. Most Bengalis listen to his songs almost on a daily basis. Sure with modern times the new generation is probably looking elsewhere - but it is probably still safe to say they know him well.

আপন হতে বাহির হয়ে বাইরে দাঁড়া, বুকের মাঝে বিশ্বলোকের পাবি সাড়া। (Step out of yourself, the universe will respond within.) Tagore's vehement opposition to nationalism in the wake of India's freedom struggle and his inclination towards humanism , as you very aptly mentioned, shows nothing but a committed global citizen whose heart went out to even the dejected citizens of that little island during WW2 that subjugated half of the world at that time , including his own beautiful land. His contemporaries , including Bertrand Russell , considered his views to be 'vague'. Many philosophers consider his work to be Upanishadic but he was a mixture of both East and West. Not many understood the vastness that is India (and the world, evidently)as profusely as he did. I am fortunate enough to share my beautiful mother tongue, Bangla with such a great man. One request, make some videos on Ancient Sanskrit literature. Kalidasa, Bhasa, Shilabhattarika are pioneers. Also, you can read Dalit literature, coming from the lower caste people of India. You will not be disappointed 😊

I know my reply is coming long after you put your comment here, but I couldn't stop myself from expressing my appreciation for what you've written. And thank you so much for the first 2 lines, I hadn't read it before.. translatiom does not do justice to what he says in his own words. Rabindranath Tagore can make me fly from the mundane to the magic of the universe using a few words.. it leaves me speechless every time I read his works. 'Akash bhora, surjo tara' gives me the same feeling as the two lines in your comment.. I almost tear up when I listen to the song, and even more when I sing it myself.

Thank you for such a wonderful video on Rabindranath Tagore. It is quite difficult to give room to a man in such a small space of time whose works comprise nearly thirty big volumes. Apart from all these he composed more than two thousand songs, unparallel in both their lyrics as a philosophy and in their heart-appealing melodies. His sense of humour was very high. He was an ever curious man, there is no field in the world of knowing where he did not poke his interest into. He was one of the greatest humanists of all time. In one of his songs, 'Apon hotey bahir hoye baire dara......' meaning 'When you come out of your own self and stand aside, You can feel a cosmic throb inside your bosom.'

It's interesting to see his comparison of Eastern and Western views on nature, as I saw a similar comparison made in a (nonfiction) book I'm reading at the moment, though between Indigenous cultures of America and Western/European views instead! Indigenous cultures here generally have a relationship with nature based on gratitude and reciprocity. The book is Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer. It's nonfiction and spends a lot of time discussing plants, but also broader cultural and human values.

I always reading your comments. You always make really great connection between different books and ideas. Yes, you're right one of the thing that is very similar around the world is this idea that we are from nature and part of nature so there is no separation between humans and the natural world. I think in the west, this separation is very apparent and has a religious explanation that we are not from this earth and have come from the garden of eden. Of course even if you don't believe that today, it somehow filters its way through and influence your outlook in some ways.

It's interesting to hear that her people's cosmology involved a woman that came to the world a stranger, too, but she was received by the natural denizens warmly and returned their gifts with her own by planting seeds, forging a relationship of caring responsibility between nature and humanity.

​@ooToob-ef8jq Upanishads are the explanatory texts of old Hindu religious texts known as Vedas. Whatever is spoken in Vedas, those philosophies are elaborated in Upanishads through discussions, question-answer formats, debates. That's why Upanishads are also known as Vedanta=Veda+Anta(anta meaning "end"). To say, at the end of each Vedic verses, Upanishad's discourses begins.

Tagore in India (or Asia) is one of the most influential and great authors. His poems, short stories, novels, plays are tremendous and those that I regularly come back to. You would read his "Sesher Kobita" (the last song) and "Gora" (the fair one) his masterpiece novels and some of his great plays. Although much is lost due to the english translation (of a non-european language and huge cultural differences) then also it's worth reading his works since great literature is always above cultural borders.

Tegore is as much needed today as 100 years ago when cultures collide and wars rage. Tegora had conversed with Einstein in his Princeton office about truth and beauty, I still cannot figure out who is more right? Tegora views beauty and truth as human concept, Einstein agrees with him on beauty, but not on truth.

Till you understand joy as pleasure and pleasure as opposite of pain, it is not possible to attain joy. Pleasure and pain are at same level, have same frequency and are two sides of the same coin. They come together and go together. And till we love pleasure, we cannot get rid of pain. And till we loath and reject pain, we will have to sacrifice pleasure at the same altar. Joy is what remains when both pleasure and pain are given up. Because both pleasure and pain are adventitious while joy is your real essence, your own Being, it's You.
