Known as "Gurudev," poet Rabindranath Tagore was a proud inheritor of India's spiritual heritage, to which he gave voice in his inimitable language. He founded the famous Shanti Niketan and Vishva Bharati. A great man of letters, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1913. He was one of our noblest patriots and was always keen to promote the welfare of his countrymen, educationally, economically and politically. He was a colossus who made an outstanding contribution to the development of painting, music, dance and drama. He triumphantly toured many countries of the world carrying the message of renascent India.

The greatest personality & the greatest sufferer in his own life, Tagore can hardly be matched. He is our pride & our everything. |

I have heard this :- Tagore's word on Beauty: Tagore saw the long slide glances of the female and was reminded of Kalidasa. O! Kalidasa should include these women (of bengal) with side long glances (looking unnoticingly at the other) but if I (Tagore) write now the poem I (tagore) can describe the beauty of the eyes but only thing that is missing now in these females is the lotus in their hand. |

Rabindranath Tagore built open classrooms because he wanted children also to have freedom. They were allowed to do whatever they wanted to do at a given time. |
