  2. The Tagoreanemblem represents three letters T I S. The central I is the leaping flame of the candle, signifying everlasting knowledge, enclosed by T which forms the arm and legs of the child who is never tired in his quest for this 'Vidya' or knowledge. Like the light of the candle, the child is continuously striving to reach for the stars. " I am worthy " says the child. This is the simple Tagorean philosophy: ' Belief in Self '. " I Am What I Am.I am the Truth and Joy Forever."
