Life's Inspiration

On November 22, 2012, I happened to see the exhibition of 150th Birth Anniversary of Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore on wheels arranged by Indian Railways that was stationed for three days in Chennai Central Railway Station for the public view. A great effort in memory of the great legend of India!

His was a saga of personal losses on the family life-front but the Guru lived a long life and guided the country for a few decades apart from establishing a world-renowned institution "Santhi Nikethan". He tried to live with and enjoy 'Nature' from close quarters. Hence a number of poems linking nature with the Almighty.

After leaving the platform (No. 11) my mind was engrossed with the Tagore days and asking myself:

"Where did I come from and what for ?
 Where do I go from here now in this life?"
