Q.1. What kind of freedom does Tagore visualise for his country?
Ans.
Rabindranath Tagore dreams that his country should be a heaven on
earth. Tagore gives very much importance
to mental freedom. Our mind should not
be a slave to any dogmas, narrow-mindedness, and social or moral evil. He thinks
of a country where people are fearless, courageous, and brave. There should
not be any barrier that divides his countrymen on the basis of colour, caste, and creed. His countrymen should be free
to increase their knowledge. Education in his country should be free for all. The
people of his country should be broad-minded, honest, and generous in
nature. They should be true to their
word actions and thoughts.
Tagore also cherishes (takes pleasure in) the
dream in which he wishes his country to become a place like heaven. So we may
say that it is only possible when everything becomes ideal and human beings
also behave as gods and goddesses do. For that, Tagore prays to God that his
countrymen should adopt certain qualities that make them ideal beings. If all these qualities are imbibed into the
personality of the people, then, his country would really become a heaven of
freedom on the earth.
