The Next Miracle.

The reign of a new consciousness."

Rabindranath Tagore (Bengali: রবীন্দ্রনাথ ঠাকুর) sobriquet Gurudev, was a Bengali polymath who reshaped his region's literature and music. Author of Gitanjali and its "profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse", he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. In translation his poetry was viewed as spiritual and mercurial; his seemingly mesmeric personality, flowing hair, and other-worldly dress earned him a prophet-like reputation in the West. His "elegant prose and magical poetry" remain largely unknown outside Bengal. Tagore introduced new prose and verse forms and the use of colloquial language into Bengali literature, thereby freeing it from. read more: Rabindranath Tagore-Poems

It was 1985 - I was riding a train across India from Mumbai (Bombay) to Chennai (Madras). "My dear," a friendly gentleman remarked as we attempted conversation in between the loud cracks of the train going over tracks, and the movement of the train pushing us to and fro into each other, touching shoulders rhythmically. "If there is one piece of wisdom you can take with you today, it would be my recommendation to get to know the works of Rabindranath Tagore, the great poet of India." I couldn't understand him. The noise was so loud. He repeated it three times. I asked him to spell it and motioned him to write it on the pad I carried around for just these kinds of occasions. He kindly wrote it.

I read the writing on the paper, then replied, "AHHHH, of course, Rabindranath!" He got a chuckle out of it. He knew I had no clue who he wrote down. Thus began my great love of Tagore. My heart is delighted to think of this experience again. Correct timing puts you in the right place to meet the best person for the greatest opportunity, if you are open and willing to engage. You have to be aware when an opportunity is presenting itself to you, and be ready to make a quick decision whether to go for it, whatever that may mean. Some opportunities are not meant for everyone. It is important to distinguish which ones are meant for you. Trust your intuition, it knows. Follow the wisdom of your higher self. It's much easier to live this philosophy in India, one of the most spiritual places on Earth, you don't even have to worry about serial killers and things of that nature. It makes traveling so much more enjoyable, wouldn't you say? I haven't been there since 1996, and I am so ready to go back.
