Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“If I give you two possible worlds to choose from, in which you would like your children and grandchildren to live, which one would you choose - a world filled with hatred and discrimination, or a world where the humans care about their fellow humans beyond the petty little man-made labels of religion, race, nationality, intellect, gender etc.! We do not need to make efforts and be kind in order to keep Nature running, she can do that quite well and far better than us herself, in fact, it'd benefit Nature, if suddenly the humans were to disappear. It is us who need Nature in order to exist, not the other way around. We must stand on the side of kindness, goodness, compassion and conscience, not to keep the processes in Nature functioning, but because if we don't, the environment that we would be giving our future generations, would be no different than the violent and lethal environment of the wild. Hence, our kindness would make no difference to Nature whatsoever, rather it would simply be a selfish yet humanely necessary act on our part, that we must carry out to create a humane environment for the human species. Upon the kindness of us humans, the fate of humanity is predicated, not the fate of Nature. We are born in a world filled with hatred and discrimination, hence it is our existential responsibility as sentient and conscientious beings to contribute in the elimination of such discrimination and hatred. Kindness of ours in our daily walks of life, shall pave the path for a truly humane society for our children and grandchildren to live in.”

“Sonnet of Mind Goodness is godliness, For in being good you become the God, Sectarianism brings loneliness, For joy rises when you stop being an intellectual fraud, Peace and joy can't be bought, For you buy something when you don't own it, Jewels of bliss are with which your mind is already fraught, All you need is to realize within and recognize it, With realization comes contentment, For contentment is the product of awareness, So be aware with all your might transcendent, And be the being of a conscientious consciousness, Consciousness is possessed by all animals but without consequence, It’s only the human mind that holds the power to create an all-pervading influence.”

“Darkness is, in reality, nothing but the lack of light. So, darkness is natural, light is unnatural. Yet, it is light that defines the civilized traits of a species. Primitiveness is natural, being civilized is not, and yet, being civilized is what makes us superior to all other species, because we have developed the civilized faculties of conscience in our brain, overpowering the innate primitiveness, that served us well in the wild.”

“Help anyone who comes to you, as much as lies in your power, not because you are good person, nor because you want to be adored, but because you are a real human – a real human of the civilized society.”

“Come, sit next to me. As you will, so will be. As long as you are next to me, Even your silence is tranquility. I know it hurts like the dickens! Yet every wound delivers valiance. At your every whim I am your servant. But to every wound you are your treatment. Your trouble is my trouble. Be not disheartened if the world frowns. Clouds are nothing but herald of sunshine. Pain of today is tomorrow's crown. So I say, come, sit next to me. As you will, so will be.”

“It's impossible for a mind born of biology to stay strong always. You'd have to be a machine to not feel bad or sad or even devastated, when people are rude to you or criticize you. It's okay to feel bad or sad, but as long as we are moving forward, for every ten criticisms, you'll receive at least one world of appreciation or thanks.”

“Book of Destiny (The Sonnet) The book of destiny is the being, Who doesn't believe in destiny. The epitome of victory is the one, Who doesn't care for victory. Victory and destiny all are born, Of the sweat and blood of the determined. Annihilate the self for a purpose, And you'll be the icon of universal uplift. You don't fall by falling at someone's feet, You fall by climbing on top of others' head. You don't rise by being superior to others, But by losing sense of high 'n low divisiveness. Mark me well, human is neither person nor species. Designation Human is the highest of all responsibilities.”

“People are the alpha - people are the omega - no law, science, art and religion should ever forget that. Law exists so long as it has the consent of the people - science exists so long as it has the consent of the people - art exists so long as it has the consent of the people - religion exists so long as it has the consent of the people.”
