A hesitant Tagore, a determined Radhakrishnan, and a historic lecture series
On the eve of Andhra University’s centenary, a historic episode is revisited: Rabindranath Tagore’s 1933 three-day lecture series, ‘Man’, delivered at the invitation of Vice-Chancellor Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. Despite health concerns, Tagore presented profound reflections on the “Eternal Man,” self-realisation, and universal spirit.
