Influence of Buddha in Tagore’s Thought.

      Аннотация: The question concerning Man and the Universe is very important in the history of philosophy. Actually ‘man’ occupies a unique position in the mind of philosophers. In spite of differences in their metaphysical outlook the Indian systems have an internal unity. Perhaps before Protagoras philosophers had no interest in Man and he discussed from the Vedic period till today. As an Indian, Tagore was influenced by the Upani?ads, Buddhism and other scriptures. He developed his concept of philosophy from the Upani?ad, Buddhism, B?uls, folk-singers and mystic saints like Lalan, Kabir etc. In the present era we mainly discuss how Tagore developed his philosophy being influenced by Buddhism. In this book an effort has been made to evaluative remarks on Tagore’s view. Though Rabindranath had drawn our attention to the unique concept of philosophy, many religious issues may be raised. The points of departure of Rabindranath from our ancient ??strasa need to be explored and examined. Is his philosophical thought related to our religious tradition? If the answer is in the positive, the specific points of his agreements and departure are also to be focussed.
