Students and faculty of NSMU (Northern State Medical University) took part in the literary and musical event “Rabindranath Tagore: Life and Work.” 🔹 The event was organised by the Department of Foreign Languages and Russian as a Foreign Language (headed by A. T. Ashkharava, Candidate of Philological Sciences, Associate Professor). 🔹 Among the participants were students and teachers of the university. The role of hosts was brilliantly performed by students of the International Faculty — Khushi Chhabadia, Atharv Khatal, Aakit Panhalkar — and by Arina Nikonova, a student of the Faculty of Pediatrics. 🔹 Through Tagore’s life and work, the guests and participants of the event sought to show the potential for mutual understanding between people of different cultures and worldviews, as well as the interplay between scientific and spiritual ways of knowing. In 2026, we mark the 165th anniversary of the birth of this man, who is renowned not only in India but throughout the world. Rabindranath Tagore was a poet, writer, philosopher, composer, artist, and public figure. He authored the national anthems of two countries (India and Bangladesh), was a Nobel Prize winner in Literature, and founded an open school and later a university in his native West Bengal. For these and many other contributions, he earned a special, deeply respectful title in his homeland — Gurudev (“Divine Teacher”). Tagore travelled extensively, becoming ever more convinced of the necessity and possibility of a dialogue between cultures. A notable highlight was the discussions between Tagore and Albert Einstein. In 1930, he also visited the USSR; the outcome of that visit was the book Letters from Russia, in which he shared his reflections on what he had seen. Tagore’s works have been published in our country many times, and his creative output served as a source of inspiration for Russian musicians: Mikhail Ippolitov‑Ivanov composed a vocal cycle based on his poems, and Alexey Rybnikov wrote the song “The Last Poem,” which became very popular and was used in the film You Couldn’t Even Dream of It. At the end of the event, a quiz dedicated to Tagore’s life and work was held; students received tasty gifts for correct answers. As a result, no attendee left without a sweet prize. Guests received a personal “message” from Rabindranath Tagore — they drew a slip of paper with lines from the poet’s philosophical and poetic texts. ❤️ The organisers of the event express their gratitude to the kind and attentive guests: students of the Faculty of General Medicine and the International Faculty of General Practice, as well as to teachers T. V. Borovikova and A. P. Savchenko.
