Vignettes #7: An Unusual Independence Day of 2020

Independence Day 2020. As the tricolour unfolds today we pray for a country where truly the mind is without fear and the head is held high.Where the mind is without fear and the head is held highWhere knowledge is freeWhere the world has not been broken up into fragmentsBy narrow domestic wallsWhere words come out from the depth of truthWhere tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfectionWhere the clear stream of reason has not lost its wayInto the dreary desert sand of dead habitWhere the mind is led forward by theeInto ever-widening thought and actionInto that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.― Rabindranath TagoreThanks for Listening!
