Culture as shared experience

This broad based meaning of culture, which is inclusive of science, can be appreciated when we take the definition of culture as a shared experience which acts as a medium through which human mind interact.
Science as a public knowledge is shared by the scientists working in the field of knowledge we are referring to, and having the potential of being comprehended by any person who cares to learn the subject, satisfy he criterion of culture as a shared experience. Again technology which includes techniques, it's methodologies and knowledge, devices and products le of technical innovation for material necessity which are shared or have the potential of being shared must also be a part of the culture .We will see that Rabindranath played a vital role in creating this unified view of culture by bridging the gap between what are put in opposition as literary culture and scientific culture.
We can see Rabindranath's life is a real example of all encompassing concepts of culture .In this article we will try to explore how Rabindranath was induced into this scientific component of total culture and how he has contributed to the unification of science and arts through his work.
It is always a mystery how the education, environment and social circumstances with all their forces influence a genius .In fact a genius or any creative person instead of being molded by the external environment entirely, brings about changes in the environment itself by his novelty.
It is true that no person is independent of the influence of the total environment but the mechanism by which a genius grows up as distinct and unique in character is quite indeterminate. The causal relation is probabilistic, rather than deterministic .The reason is that the creative aspects of the genius interact with the environment in such a way that he himself becomes a part of the environment .To illustrate this point we can take the example of measuring an electric field by bringing a test charge. Normally the experienced force will give the measure of the external field. But if the test charge is possessed with a high value, the field it will experience is not the preexisting field but a new field where the contribution of the test charge itself is to be taken into account. In social interaction the role of great personalities is much more complicated. To extend the analogy we might think of the spring of the test charge, which has a magnetic component and the associated complications.
I would like to suggest that a genius is a rare and unique person who is the expression of a very rare probability that is inherent in the complex of the social system in which the genius is born. Because of the rarity of such probability, not the impossibility, the number of geniuses in the world is so few and far between.
