Kozhikode :
“RabindranathTagore’s writings go beyond the times. He did like to live in
the minds where vigor beats and not in the heaven. He accepted the life in
its absolute sense and that philosophy stands for universal humanity and
that’s why his scriptures are still relevant.”-noted
Prof.P.Jayendran, while speaking
on the occasion of Rabindranath Tagore’s 150th
(sesquicentennial) birth anniversary celebrations at Alakapuri in Kozhikode.
Enquiring mind,
findings and the ecstasy of the inventions are the gist of Tagore’s poems-
