The furthest distance in the world is not between life and death, but when I stand in front of you, you don't know that I love you.
This sentence comes from Tagore's "Birds", which was written in <: < Eighteen-year-old sky > > Appeared in.
Birds is a collection of poems written by Indian poet Tagore. It includes 325 beautiful untitled poems, which was first published in 1916. The basic themes of these poems are mostly very common things, such as grass, fallen leaves, birds, stars, rivers and so on.
Because the poet is faithful to his own thoughts, has a keen insight into nature and society, and is good at expressing his heart, these short poems, which look like a few words, contain rich thoughts and profound philosophies, showing a fresh, lively, beautiful and meaningful style. Birds has been translated into many languages all over the world, which has promoted the emergence and development of China's "Poem Movement".
Extended information
Birds shows the deep spiritual pursuit-the ultimate principle of love and harmony in the universe or God, which depicts the spiritual (God) connection and organic integration of all things in nature, shows the intimacy and interaction between man and nature, love and God, and praises the freedom, equality and fraternity of life-thus generating a rich and meaningful philosophy of life.
Here, the boundaries between God, nature and man and love are blurred. The poet pursues the unity of man and God, the relationship between love and God, and the unity of God and nature, and longs for the "complete image of unity" with God, that is, to achieve the unity of limited life and infinite life, that is, to achieve the highest ideal state of man.
For this reason, the poem reveals that one must perfect one's personality, get rid of hypocrisy in one's mind, drive away all ugliness in one's heart, and combine with God only in love and service of love. The poet expresses the dedication of life and the pursuit of meaning in his poems, which makes the poems full of vitality.
Because the poet's philosophy of life is not perfect, he seems powerless in the final unification of limited life and infinite life, so he has to use moral self-improvement and "universal love theory" to achieve unity, the perfection of life and the realization of social ideals.
