  1. THE HINDU STUDENTS COUNCIL PRESENTS RABINDRA JAYANTI2005 CELEBRATING TAGORE

  2. Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high Where knowledge is freeWhere the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls Where words come out from the depth of truthWhere tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfectionWhere the clear stream of reason has not lost its way Into the dreary desert sand of dead habitWhere the mind is led forward by Thee Into ever-widening thought and actionInto that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake            From-Rabindranath Tagore's Geetanjali

  29. Tagore and Education VISHWA BHARATI, SHANTINIKETAN Tara Beteille, Rashmi Raghu Stanford University

  30. Purpose of Education Achieving unity with truth Harmony with all existence Acquiring fullness in person Freeing the soul

  31. What should such an education be? • Freedom of thought • Freedom of movement • Freedom to create “To discover freedom of outlook, the mind must soar into the upper air of abstraction, swim into the very heart of the infinite for the mere joy of it, and then fly back to its nest in the world.” …Tagore in “My School”

  32. The ‘School’ • Alienates the child from nature • Stresses humankind’s superiority; defines a hierarchy that restricts freedom and the learning process • Alienates the child from itself • Uniformity and averages • Transmitting information • Standardized curriculum and examinations

  33. “A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it.” …. Rabindranath Tagore

  34. Shantiniketan Open, free, abundant and spontaneous Learning from nature, life and the teacher

  35. Shantiniketan Nature as an unending source of learning The teacher as friend & guide: liberates individual initiative and enterprise

  36. Shantiniketan Nodesks, chairs or classrooms Children should be free To organize their own environment

  37. Shantiniketan • Education: gradual and progressive • Begin with the training of instincts and emotions and in self-reliance and communal cooperation • Next: art, music and play • Medium of instruction to be the mother tongue • Opposed religious instruction

  38. Vishwa-Bharati: The University • Vishwa-Bharati - ‘Knowledge of the World’ – a new kind of ‘university’ • Motto: “Yatra Vishwum Bhavatyekanidam” – all the world in one place. Emphasized the need for a mutually beneficial relationship between the east and the west. • “a school in which men of different civilizations and traditions may learn to live together.” • Sriniketan – center for helping rural and village community developments.

  39. What can we learn? • We must be willing to engage in processes of negotiation and redefinition • What should progress and civilization be? • How important are power and success to true development?

  40. “…respect all the differences that are real, yet remain conscious of our oneness; and to know that perfection of unity is not in uniformity but in harmony.” …. Tagore in Creative Unity

  41. Dariye Aachho Tumi Aamar

  42. Dariye Aachho Tumi Aamaar Daariye aachho tumi amar gaaner o paarey Aamar surgulee paaye charan aami paayine tomaarey Baataash bohey mori mori, aar bedhe rekho na tori Esho esho paar hoye mor hridoy-o majhamre Tomar saathey gaaner khela, durer khela je Bedonate baasi bajaye sakol bela je Kobey neeye amar baasi, bajabe go aapni aasi Anondomoy neerob raater goviro aadhaarey You stand on the other side of my songs My tune finds their hold, I cannot find you Wind blows softly, do not bind me anymore Come, come, cross over, into the center of my heart With you I play the game of songs, but this game is still at a distance All day, the flute plays in my sadness When will you take my flute and play it yourself In the happy and quiet darkness of the night

  43. Klaanti Meri Kshama Karo Prabhu Forgive My Fatigue, O Lord

  44. Klaanti Meri Kshama Karo Probhu Klanti meri kshama karo prabhuPath mein peeche peeche rahun kabhiHriday mera thara tharaKaampe aaj rahe raheYehi vedna kshama karo kshama karo prabhuMeri deenta kshama karo prabhuPeeche dekhu murhke jo kabhiDin taape yeh rudra jwaalaSukhi tere pooja maala Yehi mlanta kshama karo Forgive my fatigue, O Lord,If I’ve fallen behind on my journeyForgive my fatigue, O Lord.My body shivers today all overForgive my pain, Forgive me, O Lord.Forgive my destitution, O Lord,If I look back sometimes.In the dreadful heat of day,Your garland has dried up.Forgive my soiled offering, O Lord.
