Santiniketan (contd-15)

Kabikusum joined on 1st Aug., 2003. Really, Teaching staff of the School was good this time.Nagen Babu was a man of work, with
active  nature, expert and seemed to be compassionate. Kabikusum also seemed to be good.  Orders had been placed for some drawing instrument and models. Kabikusum would teach drawing in College level also. Physical laboratoy was to be arranged properly now. After scrutiny of the applications for Technical teacher Nani Gopal Ghosh, a final year Engineering student,  was appointed. Since he didnot join, Bhabendra Babu was appointed. After coming back to Santiniketan Rabindranath was disatisfied with Bhabendra Babu and asked Gopal Chandra to issue him dismissal certificate.    

At this crisis Rabindranath felt embarassed and regretfully he wrote Subodh Chandra Majumdar who left the school all on sudden ,
'In this crisis you have left the school. I solved the crisis   by writing letters and issuing telegrams even in my family disorder. If you could have stayed now, I would not have taken so much trouble.'
After some time he wrote in encouragement,
'God saved the school. We have to pass through problems and solve it. This is the rule for doing any good programme. Otherwise it cannot gather force, attain speed and good vigour for success.In any revolution there are losses but the amount of gain is always greater than that of its losses. In this way the school is gradually expanding to its goal.Friends and ordinary man are gradually being attracted. If you would have stayed for some time more, you could have gained. Those who are devoting their life at present,  will have great success at the end.In God's premises many people, for good cause,  got hurt and cannot survive.'
Rabindranath's forecast came to be true. Persons like Subodh Chandra and others wanted to be close with Rabindtanath and by serving in the school got a place in the page of history.
