Ode to an independent soul

Have you ever come across something that you took for granted all your life and then one day you wake up to see it in a new light and realize it’s profound meaning which completely blew you away..?

well,i have one such moment with Tagore’s poem “where the mind is without fear..”

I have sung this awesome “ode to an independent soul” all throughout my school days but never really understood even a tiny piece of its beauty.All that has lost in my ignorant teens.

Now that i’ve started to feel it’s beauty..i just couldn’t get it out of my head. It resonates true for yesterday,today or any day to come as it’s essence is universal,eternal and the only word that i could think of ,that fits to describe it is “egilitarian”...
