Tagore and Gandhi
Gandhi-ji's tribute to Tagore runs: " 'Great Sentinel' of the East.""I differ with Gandhi in many respects, but I admire and revere the man highly…," so says Tagore.
Mahatma's deliverance is nothing other than the fruit of renunciation.
Tagore's deliverance is precisely the fruit of fulfilment. Tagore sings:
"Deliverance is not for me in renunciation, I feel the embrace of freedom in a thousand bonds of delight."
