ABSTRACT | ||
This article delves into the educational philosophy of Rabindranath Tagore, as reflected through his life, works, and vision, particularly emphasizing his thoughts on integrating music into mainstream education and nurturing the sub-conscious mind. Drawing inspiration from lines in Gitanjali, which reflect Tagore’s spiritual depth and universal appeal, the article highlights how his unique, self-driven approach to learning shaped his beliefs about holistic education. Despite formally abandoning school at the age of 14, Tagore emerged as a polymath and visionary, advocating for an education system that fosters creativity, emotional development, and inner freedom. Through an analysis of his unconventional journey and his establishment of institutions like Brahmavidyalaya, this study aims to uncover the deeper layers of his educational ideals, which challenge the rigidity of traditional pedagogy and advocate for a more intuitive and soulful approach to learning. | ||
