“Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening
thought and action--
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father,
let my country awake.”
~ Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore Gitanjali, Verse 35.
The above lines by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore best captures the essence of an India we all dream of. On the eve of India’s 60th Independence Day, we salute the heroes who have made it possible for us to live in a free world.
