This is a submission, and a humble submission.
A dream to find a thread out.
A thread, if any, that vaguely binds the great philosophies of this world.
Or, else, to search for the essence of the greatest civilizations of the world in its ancient period.
To find the quintessence of all these civilizations close enough to seem almost siblings.
An impossible crescendo-like flight toward that heaven, where every component reflects the heaven itself.
A wish to comprehend all these facets in essence, however, in Tagore’s creation, or in Tagore’s philosophy for that matter; and this is an attempt to feel that symphony.
The word symphony is a Greek one, meaning ‘agreement’; literally, ‘two voices together, as one’, as a Greek friend of mine wrote to me, on one occasion.
This is toward that agreement, if there is any.
