Question

O Fool, to try to carry thyself upon thy own shoulders! O beggar, to come to beg at thy own door! Leave all thy burdens on his hands who can bear all, and never look behind in regret.

Can someone give its explanation... It's urgent...

Answer 1

These lines are from Rabindra Nath Tagore's famous book Gitanjali. In these lines the poet is actually advising man not to carry the burden of existence on his own shoulders through his own mistakes; he chides man for acting like a beggar, whom God created in His own image; Tagore urges man to give all his burdens to the Creator.

He counsels him to give up his mundane desires, which make everything holy into unholy things with their touch. He exhorts him to accept only those things from life that are offered to him out of love.
