It is well known how Rabindranath came to write his profoundly moving long poem "Nirjharer Swapnabhanga" in a fit of sudden illumination that had all the qualities of an epiphany. in the morning at Sadar Street Rabindranath had a joyful feeling. His sorrows had been totally removed by the morning sun rays coming from all the directions. In his excitement he created Nirjharer Swapnabhagna. "Aji e probhate robir kar ...". which was incorporated in Prabhat Sangeet. Sometime in 1881-82 Rabindranath lodged with his brother Jyotirindranath and Kadambari at 10 Sudder Street, Kolkata, just behind the National Museum. Here, as he later recalled in Jibansmriti (My Reminiscences): "One morning I happened to be standing on the verandah looking that way. The sun was just rising through the leafy tops of the trees. As I gazed, all of a sudden a lid seemed to fall from my eyes, and I found the world bathed in a wonderful radiance, with waves of beauty and joy swelling on every side. .... That very day the poem 'Nirjharer Swapnabhanga' (The Awakening of the Waterfall)" References1. ^{{cite news|last=Chakravorty|first=Deblina|title=Time stops on Kolkata's Sudder Street|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-07-25/travel/29782216_1_foreign-tourists-sudder-street-british-tourist|accessdate=4 September 2012|newspaper=Times of India|date=25 July 2012}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Life on high street|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-07-29/kolkata/32923203_1_syringes-pavement-dwellers-contraband-drugs|accessdate=4 September 2012|newspaper=Times of India|date=29 July 2012}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=Tagore archive plan on Sudder Street|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2009-06-17/kolkata/28168638_1_tagore-bust-tagore-museum-visva-bharati-university|accessdate=4 September 2012|newspaper=Times of India|date=17 June 2009}} See also{{Streets of Kolkata}}{{coord|22.5583|N|88.3526|E|source:wikidata|display=title}}{{India-road-stub}} 1 : Streets in Kolkata |
