Servocracy to aristocracy.

On the way to home Rabindranath was petted by European ladies boarded in the train. He was moving with a servant . He was healthy and full of brightness with attractive features. He was well dressed with a hat on his head stitched with golden ribbon. This was the beginning of changes he had observed in the behavior of persons around him.
He found vivid changes after reaching home. He said, " when I reached home , it seemed that not only I returned home from other provinces, I entered within the inner apartments of a house. So long I was  in exile within my house. now I am completely free from servocracy and entered  in  aristocracy  " He got a seat in a  cot by the side of his mother's [ Sarada Debi] cot.
He could not forget the rules of the servants he got at that time when he was getting  love and affection from young female members from within the interiors.
Rabindranath explained thoroughly the child's psychology in Jibansmriti at this stage while he  mentioned  the growing attitude of himself. When he occupied a place in mother's room , he got sufficient indulgence from  his daughters-in-law
After returning home from the mountain he had to narrate his experiences  to all,from one door to another. There were some more attractive things for his mother. While reading in Normal School, Rabindranath described to his mother that the sun is very bigger than the earth , more than lacks miles. Usually thr people are accustomed to read Ramayan , translated in Bengali by Krittibas but Rabindranath read the original Ramayana in Sanskrit by Valmiki himself.His mother felt proud of her son who read Ramayana by Valmiki. Moreover she thought that his improvement was due to the traing of her husband Debendranath. .
