Tagore’s songs and poetry-vast sea of humanism and positivism

Abstract: 

Rabindranath Tagore has been appreciated all over the world as one of the greatest thinkers. His writings are intermingled with positivism and humanism. In this paper Tagore’s contributions in the arena of music and poetry are explored in the light of Psychodynamic Psychology. The heart never becomes indifferent to a rose. Tagore found we are related to the universe in three ways, by necessity, by knowledge and also by a pure emotional and intuitional union with it. In the midst of adversities and challenges, sorrows and sufferings whenever this feeling of kinship, this sense of unity, of oneness with the outer world is evoked among human beings, they are overjoyed. A rose fills one with joy, for in a rose, his consciousness finds nourishment and satisfaction. Art awakens a sense of real by establishing an intimate relationship between our inner being and the universe at large, bringing us a consciousness of deep joy.
