Religion and Rabindranath

Religion is the language of the mind and the heart, contemplation and acceleration of excellence and ascent. To Rabindranath Tagore, it is more than that. It religion is self-realisation and, for that end-in-view, continual and unending endeavour for the best and most illumined efflorescence of the Innermost One, the All Serene, who always pervades anywhere and everywhere. His unparalleled vision of religion in diverse forms encapsulating functions and festivals, joy and humanism, spirituality and creativity, mysticism and society, education and, above all, religion of religions is a perennial panorama of poignant promises and fullness. A very significant and probing study, Religion and Rabindranth is a unique contribution to Rabindranath Tagore's philosophy of religion.
