India has sparked many great men who have always inspired the people. This e-book contains the brief biographies of Rabindranath Tagore. Rabindranath spent most of his time with his domestic helper ‘Ishwar’.  Ishwar would tell him many stories, daily in the morning. His stories were based on Ramayana and Mahabharata. Rabindra let his imagination fly around those stories. At school, Rabindra would always be lost in his thoughts. At home, Aghor Babu, his Bengali tutor taught him English. Rabindra learned the language quickly and began to converse and write in it.

He was very bright and dreamt big. He loved nature and liked looking at trees, chirping birds, rising and setting of the sun. He was very sensitive and had the heart of a poet. The atmosphere, as well as the people around him, affected him greatly. At the age of eight, he wrote his first poem, which was greatly appreciated by his family.

At the age of twelve, he was made to wear ‘Janeyu’ and had to learn many Sanskrit Shlokas and Mantras along with other rites and rituals. When he was seventeen, he was sent to England for further studies. However, he did not like it there and came back to India. Apart from continuing his studies here, he helped his father in looking after the property. He wrote some poems and plays during this period; He even acted in some of them.
