Abstract
Every culture has its own unique contribution towards the formation, development and progress of civilisations. Culture not only helps in the process of knowing oneself, but shapes individual sensibility and in turn, societal sensibility and provides vitality to life. However, culture is not a static concept. There is a need for continuous scrutiny, reflections and, if necessary, amendments keeping its pace with the changing times. Across the passage of time, cultures have been subjected to scholarly treatments, evaluations and interpretations by various scholars who reflected and re-evaluated the traditions and thereby, contributed to the richness of the former. Among the scholars who contributed to the development of Indian culture, Rabindranath Tagore had undoubtedly been a distinguished personality.
