Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Thakur (7 May 1861 - 7th August 1941) is also known as Gurudev. He is the only Nobel laureate of the world famous poet, literary, philosopher and Indian literature. Through the Bengali literature, there was an era of new life in Indian cultural consciousness. He is the first Nobel laureate in Asia. He is the only poet whose two compositions have become the national anthem of two nations - the national anthem of India and the national anthem of Bangladesh are the compositions of Amard Sonar Bangla Gurudev.

life:
Rabindranath Thakur was born as Devendranath Tagore and Sharda Devi's daughter on May 7, 1861, in Kolkata's Jalsasanko Thakurbadi. His schooling was studied at the prestigious St. Xavier's School. In 1878, he wanted to become a barrister, enrolling in public school in Bridgton, England. He studied law at the University of London but returned home only after obtaining a degree in 1880. In 1883, he got married to Mrinalini Devi.

Composer:
From his childhood, he started to see the people's talents in his poetry, style, and language. He wrote the first poem at the age of eight, and in 1877 his short story was published only at the age of sixteen years. Gitanjali, Purv Prahni, Shishu Bholanath, Mahua, Vanwan, Remnant, PS, Vytha Balachhelakha, Chokherbalali, Kanika, Naivedya Mayer, etc. were created in the creation of erogenous Tagore's new era in the Indian cultural consciousness. He had taken all the literature, philosophy, culture etc. of the country and abroad and withdrew in it. Because of the father's Brahma-Samaj, he was also a Brahma-Samajya. But through his compositions and deeds, he also carried forward the Sanatan religion.

The eternal contact between man and God, in his compositions he emerges in different forms. There is hardly any such branch in literature, in which there is no composition - poetry, song, story, novel, drama, arrangement, sculpture - in all the genres he has composed. Among his published works - Gitanjali, Gitali, Geetimalya, Katha O Story, Babu, Shiva Bholanath, Kanika, Takika, Kheya etc. are prominent. He also translated some books into English. After the English translation, his talent spread throughout the world.

Shantiniketan:
Tagore was very fond of nature since childhood. He always used to think that only students should study in the context of nature. To give this idea a convincing thought, he left Sealdah in 1901 and came to Shantiniketan to establish the ashram. Tagore established Shantiniketan with trees, gardens and a library in the proximity of nature.

Rabindra Music:
Tagore composed approximately 2,230 songs. Ravindra Sangeet is an integral part of Bangla culture. Tagore's music can not be separated from his literature. Most of his compositions have now joined his songs. These songs, inspired by the Thumri style of Hindustani classical music, present different colors of human emotions.

Gurudev's songs in different ragas make it appear as if his composition was made for that particular song. This nature lover, who has a deep attachment to nature, is the only person who wrote the national anthem for two countries.

visit:
Gurudev started painting in the last days of his life. In it the voices of the era are revealed, the tone of despair, closeness, and despair have been revealed. In his compositions which are eternal contact between man and God, he emerged in different forms. There was always ideological differences between nationalism and humanity between Tagore and Mahatma Gandhi. Where Gandhi's used nationalism on the first leg, Tagore used to give importance to humanity more than nationalism. But both used to respect each other very much. Tagore gave the adjective of Mahatma to Gandhiji. There was a time when Shantiniketan was struggling with economic crisis and Gurudev was collecting funds by staging plays across the country. At that time Gandhi gave a check of Rs 60 thousand to Tagore.

When he was being taken from Shantiniketan to Calcutta for some time before the end of his life on August 7, 1941, his Natin said that you know we are building a new powerhouse here. In response, he said that yes old will be gone and the arrival of the new will be.

Respect:
For his poetry, Gitanjali, he got the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913.
