Rabindranath Tagore Appeared to Princess Haiku in a Dream


From: The Crescent Moon

For Tagore beauty and beauty’s appreciation was an important part of his life and sadhana and this was reflected in his poetry.

“Beauty is in the ideal of perfect harmony
which is in the universal being;
truth the perfect comprehension of the universal mind.”

"When the voice of the Silent touches my words
I know him and therefore know myself."

"Love is an endless mystery,
for it has nothing else to explain it."
