He was a BANGALI / BENGALI Poet and Author from BENGAL, British india. Not just any random indian. I'm a Bengali from Bangladesh. His "Amar Shonar Bangla" Song is Our National Anthem. And We Are Proud of Our Great Bengali Figures from Both of The Bengals (Bangladesh and West Bengal). Thanks for sharing this photo.

Thank you! To be blind and deaf means to have extremely acute sense of smell, taste and high level of sensitivity in touching. Moreover all sages know the true meditation assumes "artificial" blindness and deafness. That's why Helen Keller's description and visualization isn't a simple poetical admiration and comparison but almost mystical experience and deep understanding.

Nobel Prize
This was the moment when Indian poet and literature laureate Rabindranath Tagore met American author and educator Helen Keller, who was blind and deaf. They met during Tagore's 1930 trip to the US, when they were speaking at the same event. "Sitting beside Rabindranath Tagore and sharing his thoughts is like spending one's days beside the Sacred River, drinking deep of honeyed wisdom," said Keller.
