Sir Rabindranath Tagore

Rajarshi Sir Rabindranath Tagore

A rajarshi is a king who turned into a royal sage. A rajarshi will not have to leave the kingship to become rishi as in the example of Vishwamitra (who later advanced to becoming a Brahmarishi) but still while ruling the kingdom has reached a state of rishi and has attained self-realization. They still perform the kshatriya responsibility, and remain similar to most rishis, maharishis and brahmarishis descendents in their level of spiritual knowledge. A Historical novel based on the edict of a king who eradicated animal slaughter and human sacrifice from his kingdom.
