Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Science is the most influential tool of progress in the world, not one among many, but most, yet no scientist had tried to use it as a primary tool for harmony. And I desired to accomplish precisely that. I didn’t want to popularize science, for there were and are already tons of scientists doing it. I wanted to use science in a way that would have direct humanitarian consequences in interhuman relationships.”

“Liberty is too precious a thing to be buried in books. Humans should hold it up in their hands every single day of their lives and say from the deepest fathoms of their soul – “I am free – to think – to speak – to act – the way a real, novel, civilized being should – my ancestors couldn’t, but I can, and my children will”.”

“Beliefs are personal, but universal truths are above that. For example, the surface temperature of the sun is around 5,505 degrees Celsius – the speed of light is around 300,000 kilometers per second – the Earth is about 4.5 billion years old – modern day chimps are the closest cousins of us humans. These are irrefutable universal truth, regardless of what anyone believes.”

“If only you become free, then you, my dear sister or brother, will give a truly liberated family environment to your child, and that child will give the same free environment to his or her child - and it will go on, and eventually make the world filled with enough conscientious free original human souls to outweigh all the negativity of the remaining tiny portion of second-hand humans - the real lesser humans.”

“People fight over religion, because they don't understand religion. They think reading a few Bibles, Qurans and Vedas makes them religious. Books are not religion my friend. Real religion is realization of the Self.”

“To the representatives of theoretical Islam, i.e. Islamic fundamentalists, the Jews, the Christians, the Hindus, the Buddhists and all other humans who are not Muslims, are not just object of extreme detestation, they are, at the worst, lesser humans of false religions. This is not religion my friend. This is primitiveness at its worst.”

“Catholics say, anglicans ain't real christians. Jews say, christians ain't the chosen people. Hindus say, even a muslim's shadow ruins faith. Muslims say, every non-muslim is an infidel. Everybody thinks they're the chosen ones, and everybody else is living in sin. Only the brand of the bottle changes, not the prejudice and bigotry within.”

“Some people need God, others don't feel the need for it, for whatever reason. But the fact of the matter is, even those who do not believe in God, occasionally end up talking to some sort of fictitious figure, such as a loved one who has passed away. And what's wrong with that? Personal fiction is a psychological necessity of the individual – hence, a right - why can't we simply accept it as such! Why do we have to diss another person for not believing in the same kind of fiction that we believe in! It is time we become an aid to each other's light, not an impediment.”

“The Christ I Bear (Sonnet 1570) The Christ I know was a colored arab, who took a stand against intolerance. The Christ I know is the antithesis of christian nationalism. Naturally he became object of hate crime, he was the classic case of persecution. Thus the mortal man died for nobody's sin, but due to his own activist intention. The Christ I know was a friend to love, The Christ I know abhorred cruelty. Yet you've made him a badge of horror, justifying your most heinous atrocity. The Christ I bear is a spirit of love, no puny institution can contain him. I am Christ, you are Christ, when there is love, whole world is him.”
