Description Balaka A book of poetry on the theme of dynamic consciousness, written by rabindranath tagore in 1916.

This poetic work emerged as a part of an evolutionary process of the poetic mind of Rabindranath.

In pre-Balaka poetry, the poet's feelings were expressed through emotions.

But in Balaka, those feelings found expression by getting assimilated with the subject and infusing a new awareness through spirit and intellect, knowledge and feeling, mobility and illumination.

About the Author Rabindranath Tagore (7 May 1861 - 7 August 1941) was a Bengali polymath who reshaped Bengali literature and music, as well as Indian art with Contextual Modernism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Author of Gitanjali and its profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse, he became in 1913 the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Tagore's poetic songs were viewed as spiritual and mercurial; however, his elegant prose and magical poetry remain largely unknown outside Bengal.

He is sometimes referred to as the Bard of Bengal.
