Rabindranath Tagore wrote the Nobel Prize-Won poetical collection Gitanjali as a tribute to the Goddess of Knowledge and Music, Saraswathi. His purpose in compiling this book was to worship the goddess of muses by delivering each of his songs at the feet of his deity. Geetha means Geethams or songs and Anjali means delivering flowers on the feet of a deity. But considering the pungence of several poems such as Where The Mind Is Without Fear, he was aiming at arousing the Indians from the darkness of bondage and dependence to the light of independence and freedom.
