Sadhana de Rabindranath Tagore

Sadhana

Autor Rabindranath Tagore
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2020
2020 Reprint of the 1915 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Written by Nobel Prize Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, Sadhana is a profound, highly accessible introduction to India’s ancient spiritual heritage. This collection of essays is Rabindranath Tagore's excellent introduction to the subject of Indian spirituality. Tagore's objective in this work was to give the reader an understanding not only of the scripture but as to the practice, as he writes, "So in these papers, it may be hoped, western readers will have an opportunity of coming into touch with the ancient spirit of India as revealed in our sacred texts and manifested in the life of to-day." Compiled and translated by Tagore from his Bengali lectures, the book consists of eight essays, in which Tagore answers some of the most profound questions of life: Why did God create this world? Why would a Perfect Being, instead of remaining eternally concentrated in Himself, go through the trouble of manifesting the Universe? Why does evil exist? Do love and beauty have a purpose?

Notă biografică

Rabindranath Tagore was born in Calcutta, India, in 1861. A poet, novelist, short-story writer, playwright, composer, educator, philosopher, and artist, he became one of the central figures of the Bengali Renaissance. Educated largely at home, Tagore began writing at an early age and eventually transformed Bengali literature through his use of natural speech, psychological realism, and close attention to ordinary life.Tagore wrote poetry, novels, plays, essays, songs, and hundreds of short stories. His best-known works include Gitanjali, The Home and the World, The Gardener, and The Post Office. His short fiction frequently explores village life, social inequality, women's experiences, childhood, family obligations, and the conflicts between tradition and modernity. He also founded an experimental school at Santiniketan that later developed into Visva-Bharati University.In 1913, Tagore received the Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first Asian recipient of the award. The Nobel committee recognized the sensitivity and beauty of his verse, but his achievement extended far beyond poetry. He also composed songs that became the national anthems of India and Bangladesh. Tagore died in 1941, leaving behind an immense body of work that continues to influence literature, music, education, and cultural thought around the world.
