Creativity of Rabindranath (1882-1883)

Jyotirindranath was living with his wife in 10 no. Sadar Street, by the side of the Museum , Chowrangee Road. Rabindranath stayed there with them during Chaitra 1288.Now he is an young man of 21.
While staying in the house at Sadar Steet Rabindranath had a turning pt. in his life which he wrote in his Jibansmriti. " The point where Sadar Street ended overlooked the trees of Free School Street.One day  standing on the veranda I looked in the direction where the sun rays of the rising sun were coming through the leaves and the branches of the trees. All on a sudden, while looking through the sunrise, a curtain began to remove from his eyes.I found that the whole universe is filled with wonderful grandeur and the waves of beauty is flowing everywhere.The grief that is arranged in layers in my heart vanished instantly and the brightness of the world entered in my heart. On that day the poetry "nirjharer swsapnabhanga" came from heart like a spring." He also termed this elsewhere as divine.  
Even after writing "Nirjharer Swapnabhanga" [Aji e pravate rabir Kar, kamone pashila praner par]
Rabindranath wrote, "Still then the joyful mood of the universe continues" even after the completion of Nirjharer Swapnabhangha At that time nothing remains which are not dear to him.
Rabindranath wrote "Pravat Utsaab" at this time though it was published some times later in Bharaati,Paush, Issue.He also wrote Ananta Maran [Bharati. Ashwin} and Ananta Jiban [Tattwabodhini, Paush}
Baishakh issue of Bharati
Bau Thakuranir Haat,
Aami Haara.[paraner andhakar aranya majjhare]
Apart from this Rabindranath wrote , in Baishakh issue, "Debatar Manushyatwa aarop" and some critical essays . The former one is as a result studying  biology and astrology.
Nagendranath Gupta [?1861 - 1940] was one of the close friend of  Rabindranath in his early days. Rabindranath critically wrote an essay on Nagendranath 's "Swapan Sangeet" kaby grantha; "This is a small Kaby Grantha.  The writer is not yet expert in writing. But in many places it is as good as a poem bears sign of a poet of its writer.

They became close with the help of Abinash Chandra Chakrabarty, son of Biharilal Chakrabarty having influence on the group of writers of Barati. Nagendranath wrote about Rabindranath,
"Rabindranath Tagore was just twenty years old when I first met him and we have been friends ever since .....At that time he was a tall , slender young man with finally chiselled features . He wore his hair long, curlued down his back and had a short beard ...Two of his early lyrical works Sandhya Sangeet and Pravat Sangeet, had just been published."

 Rabindranath wrote , "at this time it came in the minds of Jyotidada to form a Parishad with the litterateurs of Bengal. The main motto of this association was to fix up the the translated form  of a Bengali word and to take measures for all round development of Bengali literature."
This thought was in accordance of the thinking of Civilian John Beams in 1872. [was a civil servant in British India and an author. He served in the Punjab from March 1859, to late 1861 and in Bengal from December 1861 until the conclusion of his service in 1893. He was also a scholar of Indian history, literature and linguistics. His great work was a comparative grammar of Indo-Aryan languages, published in 3 volumes in 1872–1879.
This association was named as Saraswat Sammelan.
