The name GRAINOFGOLD is inspired by Rabindranath Tagore, a spiritual seeker/ poet/ philosoph who received a Nobel prize for the book the following poem is taken from.

I had gone a-begging from door to
door in the village path, when thy golden
chariot appeared in the distance like a
gorgeous dream and I wondered who was
this King of all kings!
My hopes rose high and methought
my evil days were at an end, and I stood
waiting for alms to be given unasked and
for wealth scattered on all sides in the dust.
The chariot stopped where I stood. Thy glance
fell on me and thou camest down with a smile.
I felt that the luck of my life had come at last.
Then of a sudden thou didst hold out
the right hand and say:
“What hast thou to give to me?”
Ah, what a kingly jest was it to open thy palm
to a beggar to beg! I was confused and stood
undecided, and then from my wallet I slowly
took out the least little grain of corn
and gave it to thee.
But how great my surprise when at the day’s
end I emptied my bag on the floor to find
a least little grain of gold among the poor heap.
I bitterly wept and wished that I had had
the heart to give thee my all.
