  6. At one pole of my being, I am one with sticks and stones. There I have to acknowledge the rule of universal law. That is where the foundation of my existence lies, deep down below. Its strength lies in its being held firm in the clasp of the comprehensive world, and in the fullness of its community with all things.

  8. "Over a century ago, a quiet voice from Bengal had sensed where unchecked nationalism could lead. Writing in #1917, during the Second #WorldWar and at the height of imperial ambition, Nobel Laureate Rabindranath #Tagore warned of nationalism becoming a mechanical and dehumanising force."

  11. Saw a lovely portrait of Tagore in our archives. He was rejected a knighthood, writing to Lord Chelmsford:

    “The enormity of the measures taken by the Government in the Punjab for quelling some local disturbances has, with a rude shock, revealed to our minds the helplessness of our position as British subjects in India. The disproportionate severity of the punishments ...are without parallel in the history of civilised governments…”

  13. Is this signature written by hand directly onto the book, or is it a printed version of a handwritten signature? I want it to be the former, but my colleague thinks it's the latter.

    It's of Rabindranath Tagore, Bengali poet and winner of the Nobel Prize for literature

    Para quien lo sabe amar, el mundo se quita su careta de infinito.
    Se hace tan pequeño como una canción, como un beso de lo eterno.

  21. There’s something achingly soulful about Laisa Ahmed Lisa singing the plaintive tunes of Rabindranath Tagore that transcends time and language.

    The tributary of your suffering merges with the tributary of mine and we become indistinguishable in the ocean of our collective humanity.

  22. Had the honor of singing with @kevinmeehan this evening, and it was very special because it was #Tagore’s version and rewriting of #AuldLangSyne. Dr. Meehan also learned the Bengali verses!! #PuranoSheiDinerKotha

  23. “We know people only in dotted outline.”

    A reflective diary entry by poet and Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, written in 1894. This is a beautiful passage which reminded me a little of parts of Rilke’s letters.

  24. This was Tagore's dream of a perfect Bharat (Indian subcontinent, not the literal India right now):

    "Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
    Where knowledge is free;
    Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
    Where words come out from the depth of truth;
    Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
    Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;"

  25. When good people die, they go to heaven.
    When bad people die, they go to hell.
    When National heroes die they are forced to go to BJP election campaigns.

  27. Then trample the trail of thorns
    With your blood stained feet alone, on your own.
    If no one holds up a light, o wretched one
    And bolts the doors in dark, stormy night

    Then in the lightning fire of pain
    Kindle your own heart and keep it burning bright alone.

    ~ Rabindranath Tagore (originally in Bengali)

  28. If they pay no heed to your call walk on your own.
    Walk alone, walk alone, walk alone, walk all alone.
    If none speaks, o wretched one,
    If all turn their face away and cower in silence—

    Then open out your heart
    dear one, speak out your mind, voice
    alone.
    If everyone spurns, o wretched one
    If all leave you in the lurch in wilderness
