Question

Write a note about tagors avoid of peace

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Throughout his life Rabindranath Tagore strongly believed that until the big and

powerful nations, aided by their superiority and vast technological advancement, ceased

their desire for territorial expansion and control over the smaller nations, world peace

could never be achieved. Thus war was the consequence of the necessary logic of

aggressive western materialism that developed in the early part of the 20th century, with

science divorced from spirituality, by which some of those nations dragged the greater

part of the world into the pit of destruction. According to the poet, peace could be

achieved only when diverse races and nations were free to evolve into their distinct

characteristics, whilst all would be attached to the stem of humanity through the

bondage of love. He ardently believed that world peace could be achieved only if both

the East and the West met on a common ground and on terms of equal fellowship:

“where knowledge flows in two streams – from the East and from the West” and “in

their unity is perceived the oneness of Truth that pervades and sustains the entire universe.
