So, I sing for No Reason: Tagore's Birthday

So, I sing for No Reason

अकारण गीत गाऊं

তাই অকারণে গান গাই…..

That’s the touch of a Master, which is the working pattern of Gurudev. That’s the spirit, doing or creating something for ‘No Reason’. Then only it will turn to a great reason to live life, continue inspiring the culturally motivated society.

The minds of us have been conditioned in such a way that they intensely lack the ability to view a piece of art with a neutral and open mind or with no pre-notion. They pre-determine the connotation and significance behind the every creation and draw implications with a stereotypical corollary associate with a scattered and completely diverse perception and thoughts.

Tagore's creativity can’t be explained by any single or multiple theories, rather his works can explain all of those theories, even beyond. His informal education, quality time with relatives and neighbours, very deep interaction with all types of people from different levels and professions from grass-root, growing up in a family where creativity and lateral thinking was very common and highly appreciated might have helped him to reach those heights and inspired him to work on deep human emotions. His personal dissatisfaction and series of sorrows enriched him with the intense feeling and taught the superb lessons of human life and added a real sensation to his creations.

Explore Rabindranath Tagore’s Painting, Listen Tagore’s Songs, Read his essays and observe the dramas and literary works of different layers… You will find something different away from this common life but very close to it.

Raghu Rai: The Unflinching Eye That Framed India’s Conscience by Prabuddha Ghosh

Raghu Rai: The Unflinching Eye That Framed India’s Conscience by Prabuddha Ghosh In the long and unsettled narrative of modern India, few visual chroniclers have worked with the moral clarity, emotional depth, and sustained intensity of Raghu Rai. To speak of him merely as a photographer is to understate the scope of his engagement. He is, more precisely, a witness to India’s becoming—its fractures, its continuities, its silences, and its eruptions. Across decades, his lens has moved with a rare steadiness through the country’s most defining moments, refusing spectacle while never relinquishing the power of the image. Born on 18 December 1942 in Jhang, in undivided Punjab—now in Pakistan—Rai belonged to a generation marked indelibly by the trauma of Partition. Geography, for him, was never inert. It was memory, rupture, and inheritance. Punjab was not simply a birthplace; it was a divided consciousness. That inheritance would quietly shape his sensibility. There is, in his work, an unm...
