Tagore had championed the cause of freedom. The same he wanted to implement in the field of education. With that object he head opened Santiniketan, Sriniketan and Brahmmacharya Ashram. Accordingly, he gave free choice to students to develop their interest in any field they like. To him, education should be after the heart of a man. he explained freedom in three categorized ways, i.e. freedom of heart, freedom of intellect and freedom of will.
Education imparted in a natural way will lead to the fulfilment of these three freedoms. One may pursue the vocational education or education of an intellect, or education in any branch of the arts or one may become a sensei by observing celibacy.
