Gitanjali 35
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.
By Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindra Nath Tagore was among the fore-runners of Cosmos Mystics. A consciousness we are just beginning to appreciate. Into that state of consciousness may all awake. Thanks for sharing
