Ramprasad as an instinctive devout poet: An introduction Kumaryadav Tarun Research Scholar, Department of English, Lalit Narayan Mithila University, Darbhanga. Online published on 3 November, 2012. Abstract Ramprasad was one of the most notable saintly poets in Indo- Anglian literature. He was born in a cultivated and enlightened family at Kumarhatta in the district of 24 Parganas, Calcutta, India. Born in a doctor family, he was an intellectual in Hindi, Sanskrit and Persian. After acquiring sound acquaintance, he was showing impassiveness from this material world. Having seen this way of mind-set, his parents married him. He had no attractions towards his wife. He was always devoted to the Divine Mother. He was always engrossed in the prayer to the Divine Mother Kali. In her commend, he sang a lot of bhajans. He was not taking not taking any notice in domestic work. Meanwhile, his father passed away, now he had the accountability to run the family. So he searched a job of clerk, but it turns into a marvel. Ramprasad's lyrical life has spontaneous flow. He was gifted by Maharaja Krishnachandra and his master, who had employed him. At last, he left the world of din and dross, of dust and lest to attain the other world of light and joy, of knowledge and bliss. Not extensively known outside Bengal, India, now he is ever known as a grand pious poet in the realm of Commonwealth literature. So I, however, would try to render the interior moods, the beauty and the grandeur of his soul. I would clearly explicate the Ramprasad's life from cradle to grave and the effect of his poems on divine devotees.
