Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Hymne du Nouveau Canada Le Nouveau-Canada est un art d'amour, pas une tache de haine et d'ignorance. Le Nouveau Canada est une terre de promesses et non une terre d’indifférence. Le Nouveau Canada est un Canada meilleur, Notre vrai Nord est l’amour. Nous travaillons ensemble sans division, pour faire partie intégrante du monde. Le Hijab, l'habit, le turban, tous égaux - Ce qui est inacceptable, c'est l'intolérance. Le caractère triomphe au Nouveau-Canada, Les traditions primitives sont insignifiantes. Le Nouveau-Canada est un art d'aimer, hors de portée des singes haineux. Le Nouveau-Canada est célébration de la vie, pas une validation de préjugés ruineux.”

“Khalsa signifie être libre de la haine, Khalistan signifie nationaliser la haine. Le Christ représente l'amour et la lumière, Le nationalisme chrétien est tout sauf chrétien. Sanatana Dharma est l'advaita sanskriti, une culture de non-sectarisme, Hindutva signifie safranisation insensée. L'Islam signifie paix et bien-être, L'islamisme est la ruine de l'harmonie.”

“Je suis fou, pas indifférent (Le Sonnet) Je suis fou, mais pas indifférent. Je suis peut-être ignorant, mais pas intolérant. Je suis libre, mais pas irresponsable. Je ne connais pas l'étiquette, mais je ne suis pas insensible. Je suis un guerrier, pas un érudit. Je connais juste l'amour, pas la philosophie. Aimez chacun et aimez, car l’amour est le langage de l’humanité. Réveillez-vous, levez-vous et annoncez: Mon monde, ma responsabilité !”

“Bigots have a name for me - Abhishit Nutscar. Which is actually quite flattering to me, because in sanskrit "abhi" means fearless. So all I hear is, "wounded nutter with some fearless shit". Love you, kids! Get well, soon!”

“I chose to take the weight of the world on my shoulders, but you don't necessarily have to. If you can't take the weight of the world on your shoulders, take the weight of your nation - if you can't take the weight of your nation, take the weight of your city - if you can't take the weight of your city, take the weight of your neighborhood. Start small but start somewhere - take responsibility for the issues of your immediate vicinity if not the whole world, and the world will change, slowly but surely.”

“Run for service, not office. Chase change, not campaign victory. If you can't change the world without office, you definitely can't change it in office. Who am I? I am Abhijit Naskar, EAS - Earth Administrative Servant the First. Who's next - who is thunderful enough, to shoulder the world as living Atlas!”

“To me everyone is equal, until they feel the urge to offer advise based on some stroneage tradition. That moment, I stop considering them as equal humans, and start treating them as adolescent children. Whenever you feel the audacity to advise a reformer, ask yourself this - what exactly have you done for the society that makes you qualified to judge a reformer? I sacrificed my youth for the world. What have you done? I put off starting a family for the world. What have you done? I obliterated my national and cultural identity for the world. What have you done? Till you've abolished the last trace of active bigotry, intolerance and fanatical fantasies from your mind, don't you dare touch my work. Everybody can quote Naskar, not everybody can accompany Naskar.”

“Dear li'l governments (The Sonnet) Dear li'l governments of the world, You don't have a friend in me, If people are not your priority. You don't have a friend in me, If you thrive on inequality. You don't have a friend in me, If you're partial to one religion. You don't have a friend in me, If you're founded on nationalism. Dear li'l governments of the world, If you know what's best for you, Walk the course of integration. If you choose tribalism instead, In me you'll find your abolition.”

“Visvabiotic (The Sonnet) Human is bandaid to human burn, Human is ointment to human yearn. Human is morning to human mourn, Human is cure born of human churn. Human is Altair to human Vega, Human is aloe to human vera. Human is pilgrim to human mecca, Human, Poly-B to social septicemia. There is no fancy heaven, only a good fervent human. There is no book of god, only a brave godly person. Human is piety to prejudice barbaric. To all inhuman hate, Human Visvabiotic.”

“World is My Brotherhood (Sonnet 1616) No neighborhood without brotherhood, No sainthood without martyrdom. Martyrdom doesn't mean dying in body, but to be lost in others' ascension. You're born with a human backbone, Don't let it be vilified by cowardice. Backbone responsible is backbone honored, Backbone responsible is antidote to malice. World is in your care, carry it with grace. No bigger disgrace than backbone bending! Find a cause that honors your human backbone, Humans can break, while animals bend for nothing. Stars-n-stripes, union jack, all trivial, for the world is my neighborhood. I got no brotherhood of cult or creed, for the world is my brotherhood.”

“Buddhas, Christs and Mevlanas don't live in caves, they walk amongst you. You know why? Because we cannot change the world from the sidelines. You may play the make believe of nonattachment all you want - and it may bring you personal comfort for the time being, but it doesn't alleviate human suffering from the world one bit. The enlightenment bit is a small part of the equation. How you live afterwards determines the true worth of that enlightenment. If your idea of enlightenment revolves around some prehistoric routine of sitting and chanting, or crouching and praying, then such enlightenment is no enlightenment, but derangement.”
