Poet and the Sage

Rabindranath was at last able to do away with all his preconceived ideas and reservations about Sri Ramakrishna. ‘Great souls, like Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, have a comprehensive vision of Truth, they have the power to grasp the significance of each different form of the Reality that is one in all....‘ he remarked. Earlier, Rabindranath's impression about Sri Ramakrishna was often skewed. Subsequently, the poet was decidedly reverential.
