Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Latin not Lethal (The Sonnet) Yes I am latino and proud, That doesn't make me a thug. Yes I am brown in color and loud, That doesn't mean I'm a lethal bug. Some of us can't speak English, That doesn't make us second-rate. We care for family as much as you, In friendship we walk to the world's end. Savage imperialists walked on our corpses, While they snatched our lands and homes. Yet you call us illegal and dangerous, Showing no remorse or desire to atone! None of us can undo the past I know. Our kids may walk together, let's make sure.”

“No more hatred, no more segregation, no more "my culture, your culture", "my ancestor, your ancestor", "my people, your people", fudge it all - every people ever wronged are our people, and predators that ever wronged a human community, are our first enemy, they are the first enemy of the human race, as such they belong either in jail or in the jungle, or in a mental institution, even if they belong to the same ethnicity as us.”

“Over the past few years one change has taken over my writing. It's that I no longer write from thought. Almost everything I write today is the result of subconscious grinding. In fact, these days I make it a point to not write from thought, particularly because things written from thought never quite embody the magic of my naturally flowing spring of words. Initially my writings contained occasional natural gems, bridged by materials from thought, particularly my early works of prose. But nowadays, it's like some invisible force does the actual writing - the complete writing, I only take dictations. Perhaps I've gotten lazy, or perhaps the outside has gotten lazy, for the inside has come alive. The thinker has given in, for the seer has come alive. This ain't mysticism, just the genius of nature. I ain't a mystic, just nature at its peak.”

“Curse of Spirituality (Sonnet 2537) Why is it that 90% of modern spiritual population are just newage nutters, what's the point in surpassing religious fundamentalism, if you end up being sucked into superstitions with glitter! Why can't you be spiritual without being superstitious, why can't you be religious without being a fundamentalist - the day you could, that's the beginning of civilized spirituality and human religion. I'm not asking for cold, cantankerous logic all the time, all I'm saying is, why does spirituality have to depend on superstition - if your spirituality crumbles without superstition, you were never spiritual, just underdeveloped. There is no spirituality except kindness, there is no religion but service.”

“No Other, But One (Naskaristana 2503) Some say tawhid, some say advaita, some say ubuntu, some say divinidad. Tawhid doesn't mean all other gods are false, tawhid means it's all one god. Divinity doesn't mean mortal must submit to divine, divinity means mortal and divine are one. Divinity done properly dissolves the self, poetry done passionately dissolves the self, neuroscience done honestly dissolves the self. Shallow theology fights science, deep theology becomes it. Shallow science fights spirituality, deep science becomes it.”

“Various fascinating psychological elements are involved in the transcendental state of human consciousness. One may lose the ability to distinguish one’s self from the rest of the world in transcendence, but still it is the human brain that constructs that state of mind. Hence, even in that altered state of consciousness one is not totally devoid of one’s beliefs, conjectures, ideas and fantasies. In fact, these ideas fill up the transcendental experience with all kinds of fanatic stories that happen to be unique, based on the person’s inner urges and drives.”

“Rewiring Divinity, 2732 (Diary of A Monk Scientist) One thing you must realize, there is no absolute truth in this world, whatever you put your life and mind into, goes. I found the world's perception of religion prehistoric, so I poured my existence into rewiring the very reality of divinity - because, there is no other divinity out there, whatever we humans come up with, goes - and if some prehistoric baboons with two brain cells could normalize blind faith as divinity, then a human being with a hundred billion nerve cells, could cast aside such blindness and redo divinity from ground up, and this time, not as a coping mechanism against the unknown, but as enhancement of our humanity.”

“Hanukkah Sonnet Hanukkah, Oh Hanukkah, let's light the menorah, Let's wipe out all divide, even if some call it utopia. Come one, come all, no matter the culture, Let's stuff some latkes while we dreidel together. Worry not about the candles burning low, Fear not the darkness of hate and narrowness. So long as we stand as bridges and not walls, No darkness is match for our uplifting radiance. The light of the festival doesn't come from candles, The sweetness in the air doesn't come from treats. The light and sweetness of these joyful festivities, Rise from the loving streams of our heartbeats. Let us burn bright as the gentle epitome of ahava. Let us live life as a walking and talking menorah.”

“Handcrafted Humanity Sonnet 12 Here are some words born of narrowness, Activist, woke, religious, atheist, Socialist, communist, capitalist, conservative, Intellectual, intelligent, classy, elitist, Educated, learned, well-versed, sound-mind, Traditional, old-fashioned, spiritual, altruistic, Empiricist, Existentialist, rationalist, freethinker, Godly, compassionate, selfless and mystic. I refuse to be defined by any of them, None of them can explain my true sentiment. I may advocate for the good within each of them, But I refuse to give any of them exclusive endorsement. All these words are too puny to define my identity. My name is human, my heart contains entire humanity.”

“Mundo Mi Monasterio (Imanjali, Sonnet 2344) Patriot beyond nation, religious beyond religion, cultured beyond culture - that's a complete human. Conscience is my CV, Biodata, Bulldozer, Revolution, my resume, Citizenship, Earthistana. Hindistan bana can verdi, Amerika bana şan verdi, Türkiye bana kalp verdi, ve Dünya bana amaç verdi. En sevdiğim kitap Mesnevi, en sevdiğim şair Mevlana, en sevdiğim dil Türkçe - yinede derviş, şair, hepsi sonra, öncelikle ben insan, iyilik benim iman; mundo mi monasterio, annihilation my azan.”
