Answer:

Rabindranath Tagore compares dead habit to dreary desert sand in which the stream of reason has lost its way. Dreary desert sand stands for our various superstitions which do not let us apply logic and thus do work blindly according to our superstitions.

Explanation:

The poem ''Where the mind is without fear '' is beautifully written by Rabindranath Tagore.

  Where The Mind Is Without Fear turns from a religious to a patriotic theme. Tagore prays for the freedom of the country and that too an ideal freedom. He prays that his country become a place where a man can go with his mind, free of any fear and where he can hold his head high with self-respect and dignity. A country where everybody has free access to knowledge and where narrow boundaries set up between man due to caste, creed, region and religion, do not exist and the country is therefore not broken up into small pieces. A new and free India where people speak with the conviction of truth and man earnestly endeavors and endlessly tries to achieve perfection.

     A country where man's power of determining right and wrong is not forced to stagnate and die like a desert stream dies in the sand, where his power of reasoning would not be choked by old, orthodox and outdated customs, habits and traditions. Where man's mind is always inspired by God to go forward and progress and achieve better thought and action. Finally, he prays to God that his country is changed from the darkness of ignorance and slavery into a heaven; "let our country awake a free country, a heaven, a paradise."
