    :hello: Very pertinent image of a Nobel laureate poem written some 120 years ago posted here on the day of birth anniversary. 6/8/20.

    2. These days the pomp and the show that goes with divine Poojas and public festival in the name of God is no less than the Tagore ‘s King in the poem that you had displayed. We have numerous pseudo saints & monks - the shams - the hypocrites.

    3. Ostentation is the order of the day which God Himself might have got fed up.

    4. A very right thing to remember “Gurudev” - as called endearingly by Gandhiji. And in turn Tagore called Him “Mahathma”.

    5. A true patriot, Gurudev returned the knighthood back to Queen to mark his protest against against India.

    Thanks and Regards.
