Santiniketan ( Contd-22)

On 22 March, Rabindranath wrote to Manoranjan Bandyopadhyay, ' Subodh has got a strain in his leg for bathing in the tide of Padma. Santosh is undertreatment for last two weeks due to his fracture in his leg. Mohit Babu is also ill.I have given warning to all the professors to keep up their honour prestige by working sincerely.' in this letter he mentioned that the school would remain here for another two months.
In another letter written to Sushila Devi, wife of Mohit Chandra, Rabindranath expressed his anxiety for his friend Mohit Chandra.He informed that the students were engaged for his nursing. If he was not cured then he would be brought in Jorasanko for his treatment.
In the opinion of Rabindranath   'journey to different places is a part of education.' He was remembering the journey to the Himalayas and the journey the ganges and Padma with his father.He also took Rathi to different places.Now Rathi had been given the facilities going round the world. Rathindranath and Dinendranath went to Calcutta from Selaidah and then they went to Puri. After their return Rabindranath sent him to Badrikasram under the guidance of Swami sadananda of Ramkrishna Mission.
