A Humble Attempt to Similarise ‘Gitanjali’ by Rabindranath Tagore and ‘Song of Myself’ by Walt Whitman
The basis of Tagore’s view of life, that Death is merely a transformation or the only gateway to the eternal is well portrayed in Gitanjali. The soul after death lives in the Eternal and may assume some different form. Walt Whitman’s belief in the Supreme and the cycle of life and death, the immortality of the soul all combine without an escape from the sensory world. To him the sensory world is real and necessary and a pathway to the Union with the Divine, this is well portrayed in Song of Myself.
