He was from the Bengal province of India and was born into a wealthy family. He was also mostly self-taught in all he did, according to Quartz. As Britannica reported, Tagore introduced Indian culture to the West—and Western culture to India—and is “generally regarded as the outstanding creative artist of early 20th-century India.”
As mentioned, Tagore was a social reformer, very interested and associated with non-violent social change. He was friends with Mahatma Gandhi and supported Indian independence. And he was also a talented songwriter who penned the national anthem for India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka (along with over 2,000 songs in general, Quartz reported).

Sure, there can be hangups, and fear can sometimes hold us back. But you just have to remind yourself that if you don’t find a boat, call for help or build a bridge, you’re never going to cross that sea. You’ll never get anywhere by standing still, literally and figuratively.
