It was quite difficult to determine the order in which the names of the ‘Great Personalities’ may be arranged. I took the path of the least resistance and arranged them in the alphabetic order.

It was on Monday, 7th May, 1861, that Ravindra Nath was born to Maharishi (sage like) Devendra Nath Thakur in his palatial house, situated at Jorhasanko-Calcutta, (now Kolkata) the then capital of India, and of course, a big city as well. Ravindra Nath was the youngest son of his parents. That was a transition period because of the all pervading and magnetic influence of Raja Ram Mohan Rai who is called the father of Indian Renaissance. Brahma Samaj had become the pivot of the Reformation movements. Ravindra Nath’s father, sage Devendra Nath Thakur was the founder leader of Adi Brahma Samaj, a branch of the Brahma Samaj. Early life At his primary education stage, Ravindra Nath could not stand the restrained life. Those days the residence of Maharishi Devendra Nath Thakur was the meeting place of celebrated literary figures, musicians and artists of the country; It was here that the touch of home-tutor, and the contact and patronage of these august persons, saw the potentialities of a world poet in the child Ravindra Nath. In the words of Edward Thomson, “All the surging tides of Indian Renaissance flowed round his daily life.” In his immemorable work ‘Jeevan -Smriti’ (thou-Le~fr) the exalted poet writes, “When his father Maharishi Devendra Nath asked for his consent for a tour of the Himalayas, he felt like expressing his joy loudly with all his energy. 4R | G. P. After the sacred thread ceremony (Janeu), when he was only nine years, the jovial child accompanied his father on a journey to Dalhousie Shailawas, there he was, far from the city life of Calcutta, in the lap of nature’s beauty of the high peaks of the Himalayas. Here Maharishi Devendra Nath, himself, read out to the child Ravindra Nath the shlokas ('¥ksd`) of the Upanishads. As a result the Upanishads became the centre of the whole life philosophy of Ravindra Nath. He was specially influenced by the Ish, Chhandogya and Shwetashet Upanishads. Besides this, the mind of the adolescent Ravindra Nath was deeply influ- enced by the Mahabharat, Geet Govind, Vaishnava Padawali, the prose writings of Bankim Chand Chattopadhyay and the poetry of Bihari Lal. At the age of 17 years, he went to London and persued his studies at London University under the guidance of Henry Morley. Consequently he ever felt attracted towards the English Romantic poets. The all round genius of Ravindra Nath Thakur To internalize fully the life-philosophy of Sri Ravindra Nath, it is most necessary to know his main writings. Ravindra Nath wrote his first poem at the age of seven years only. He continued to write till the last moment when he died in 1941. In short he enlightened the world with his poetic-genius for over seventy years. His literary contributions are so wide and varied that to be conversant with them, a fully devoted whole life is needed. Offering reverence to his multi-directional genius Count Keysuling said, “He is the most universal, the most encom- passing human being, whom I have ever met.” As a matter of fact, in the personality of Sri Ravindra Nath a spectacular fusion of different aspects of Indian culture is visible. That is why, in his poetic works, a unique combination of different thoughts and religions is available, e.g. Vedanta, Vaishnavism, Buddhist Philosophy, Sufi religion Bayul sect, Christianity. This is almost unprecedented. Ravindra Nath was atheist and a humanist. It is generally believed that aththeism and humanism are contradictory. This is western way of thinking. From the Indian point of view theism means seeing the same God in each particle—both living and non-living. In a way Ravindra Nath fully represented and stood Ravindra Nath Thakur | 5R for Indian values of life. To him God and his creation were one and the same thing. Humanism The well-known Greek philosopher Protagoras is considered as the thinker who was the first to talk of humanism. He used to say that “Man is the measure of all things. This humanism was revived by the French philosopher Auguste Comte in the nineteenth century. Thereafter, Karl Marx incorporated humanism in his philosophy of Communism. The western humanists used to be positivists.

  • Role of Women in the Quit India Movement Anil Chauhan
    P: ISSN NO.: 2394-0344 RNI No.UPBIL/2016/67980 VOL-4* ISSUE-1* (Part-1) April- 2019 E: ISSN NO.: 2455-0817 Remarking An Analisation Role of Women in The Quit India Movement Abstract The present work is an attempt to evaluate the role of women in the Quit India Movement 1942. Women, from time immemorial, have eagerly taken part in political, social and cultural affairs as and when they were required to do so. They as a force played a very crucial role in the India’s freedom struggle. The Quit India Movement of 1942, which was a spontaneous mass uprising witnessed the women at its fore front. During this movement, the women activists challenged the norms that obsessed an earlier generation of women leaders to fulfil their roles as the freedom fighters. Women during this movement boldly led processions, picketed liquor shops and fearlessly faced the British Raj’s repressions without fearing about their personal well-being.Thus,the brave Women of India created history by making their contribution in the efforts leading to the freedom of their mother land. Keywords: Evaluate Women, Quit India, Movement, Crucial, Freedom Struggle, Spontaneous, Mass Uprising Introduction Mahatma Gandhi once said "When the history of India's fight for independence comes to be written, the sacrifice made by the women of India will occupy the foremost place.". More than 77 years have passed since Quit India Movement was launched by Mahatma Gandhi on the 8th of August in 1942 at the All-India Congress Committee session in Bombay. On the very next day, Gandhiji, Jawaharlal Nehru and many other leaders of the Indian National Congress Anil Chauhan were arrested by the British Government.

  • Madhya Bharti 75 21.07.18 English
    A Note on Paradoxes and Some Applications Ram Prasad At times thoughts in prints, dialogues, conversations and the likes create illusion among people. There may be one reason or the other that causes fallacies. Whenever one attempts to clear the illusion to get the logical end and is unable to, one may slip into the domain of paradoxes. A paradox seemingly may appear absurd or self contradictory that may have in fact a high sense of thought. Here a wide meaning of it including its shades is taken. There is a group of similar sensing words each of which challenges the wit of an onlooker. A paradox sometimes surfaces as and when one is in deep immersion of thought. Unprinted or oral thoughts including paradoxes can rarely survive. Some paradoxes always stay folded to gaily mock on. In deep immersion of thought W S Gilbert remarks on it in the following poetic form - How quaint the ways of paradox At common sense she gaily mocks1 The first student to expect great things of Philosophy only to suffer disillusionment was Socrates (Sokratez) -'what hopes I had formed and how grievously was I disappointed'. In the beginning of the twentieth century mathematicians and logicians rigidly argued on topics which appear possessing intuitively valid but apparently contrary statements. At times when no logical end is seen around and the topic felt hot, more on lookers would enter into these entanglements with argumentative approach. May be, but some 'wise' souls would manage to escape. Zeno's wraths - the Dichotomy, the Achilles, the Arrow and the Stadium made thinkers very uncomfortable all along.

    RESEARCH ARTICLE The Hindi-Speaking Intelligentsia and Agricultural Modernisation in the Colonial Period Sandipan Baksi* Abstract: This paper is a study of the perceptions of the emerging Hindi-speaking intelligentsia about agricultural modernisation in the British colonial period. It discusses the meaning of agrarian change for this emerging class, especially with respect to the interrelationship between the techniques and methods of agricultural production on the one hand, and the socio-economic aspects of agricultural production on the other. It is based on a survey of writings that appeared in some important literary and popular science Hindi periodicals of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. The study finds that there was a strong perception among Hindi publicists of the colonial period of the utility of science and technology in agriculture. While acknowledging the importance of science, there was an understanding among them that the expansion of production and productivity in agriculture was also dependent on the prevailing socio-economic context. Keywords: history of agriculture, history of science, vernacular periodicals, Hindi periodicals, science in the vernacular, science and colonialism, agriculture and colonialism, popularisation of science, scientific agriculture. In his landmark analysis of the Indian economy of the early 1960s, Daniel Thorner wrote that colonial India suffered from “the world’s most refractory land problem,” because of a “built in depressor” in the structure of its agrarian economy (Thorner 1962). This built-in depressor, a result of the policies implemented by colonial rule, constrained the growth of the productive forces in agriculture. These policies prevented any significant investment in agricultural development, and acted as an inherent disincentive to the adoption of modern methods and techniques by Indian cultivator classes.
