“Freedom of religion can exist only, Where there is religion of freedom. Freedom of love can exist only, Where there is love of freedom. Freedom of choice can exist only, Where there is choice of freedom. Freedom of being can exist only, Where there are beings of freedom.”

“Immigrant American (Sonnet 2847-2850) With bold new dreams we crossed the sea, escaping chains, seeking liberty - but the land we found had living roots, ancient voices we chose to mute. We called ourselves the civilized, while truth was buried falsified - we took the land, we drew the lines, and called it an act of grand design. But history whispers through the ground, in every stolen, silenced sound - if liberty is what we claim, then justice must ignite our vein. Say, can you see the truth we hide, behind the stars, behind the pride - a banner bright yet shadows cast, by wounds we've carried from the past! If freedom is judged by how we treat the ones trodden beneath our feet, then we are far from brave and free, we are what we refuse to see. No dawn will break, no future grow, if hate is the seed we choose to sow - before we praise, before we claim, we must unlearn the roots of shame. If migrants aren't American, then neither is Lady Liberty - she too arrived from distant lands, yet stands as hope for all to see. This soil was shaped by wandering souls, by broken dreams aiming to be whole - a nation thrives not by its walls, but by how wide it opens doors. America is not the best, America is the test we face - not supremacy, not perfection, but courage born of self-correction. Not red or blue, not black or white, but every shade holds the human light - no stars for hate, no stripes for fear, let human hearts be what we wear. Sing, o sing, not of empty glory - write anew a human story. No more flags soaked in denial, no more pride that breeds exile. Rise, o rise, from myth to task - dare the truth now, face the facts. Not land of the free in word alone, make humanity our only throne. Here, you take the Naskar Pen, now go lead with the Dream of the King - from fractured past to conscious dawn, a human nation will sure be born.”

“When you come down to the ground of humanity from your pedestal of intellect, then you realize that though white Americans received independence from British occupation on July 4th, 1776, it meant nothing as to the fate of the Black Americans, for they still continued to suffer as slaves officially until the declaration of the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1st 1863, and somewhat unofficially till Juneteenth, that is, June 19th, 1866. I say somewhat unofficially because, it ought to be clear to anybody with half a brain by now that, slavery didn’t actually end either with Emancipation Proclamation or on Juneteenth, it morphed into racism.”

“Ain't My Fourth of July (The Sonnet) Fourth of July comes and goes, Yet slavery remains and thrives. It kills in the name of supremacy, It causes ruin in a pro-life guise. Real advocates of life value life, And place life above all belief. Belief that values guns over person, Is only pro-death and pro-disease. Freedom involves accountability, Without which we are just free animals. Those who turn superstition into law, Are no judge but a bunch of dumbbells. This ain't my Fourth of July, for I actually value life. Till all lives are deemed equal, I'll continue to strive.”

“Monarchy Sonnet Bloodline doesn't determine destiny, Only determination can do that. Biology doesn't see royalty, Only bugs without backbone do that. They say above the law is nobody, Yet the royalty makes their own law. If this is what civilization is about, It's much better to be an outlaw. The very existence of monarchy, Is a sign of a medieval society. We deny visa to hopes and ambition, Yet kings and queens receive undeniable loyalty. So I address the monarchs of planet earth, Grow up and give your character a real birth.”

“Ich bin Mensch (Das Sonett) Du hast gefragt: Was ist meine Nationalität? Ich sage, meine Nationalität ist die Menschheit. Du hast gefragt: Was ist meine Sprache? Ich sage, meine Sprache ist Freundlichkeit. Du hast gefragt: Was ist meine Kultur? Ich sage, Mensch zu sein ist meine Kultur. Du hast gefragt: Was ist meine Tradition? Ich sage, meine Tradition ist Demut. Du hast gefragt: Woran glaube ich? Ich sage, Integration ist der größte Glaube. Du hast gefragt: Was ist meine Religion? Dienst ist meine Religion - Liebe, mein Glaube. Ich existiere, wenn du existierst, Meine Identität ist Liebenswürdigkeit. Ich bin die Welt, die Welt bin ich, Ich bin das Spiegelbild der Menschheit.”

“Eu não sou um capitalista, Eu não sou comunista, Eu não sou socialista, Eu não sou um tradicionalista. Uma espécie infantil e clinicamente sectária como a sua não consegue entender o que eu sou. Isso significa que não sou da mesma espécie que você? Claro que sou, mas de uma dimensão diferente, de uma dimensão diferente no tempo, de uma dimensão diferente na mente, onde o intelecto é apenas uma ferramenta, não uma tortura - onde a fé é apenas uma escolha, não uma obrigação - onde o dinheiro é apenas um meio, não um patrão - onde a unidade é fundamental, não a ficção.”

“Carta aos Meus Soldados: Eu sou apenas o começo - o começo de um novo tipo de humanos - humanos que pertencem não a uma cultura, mas a muitas culturas - humanos que falam não uma língua, mas muitas línguas - humanos que estudam as escrituras e a ciência com igual entusiasmo, mas que se comprometem lealdade a nenhum deles, e sabem como usar ambos em benefício da humanidade - humanos que não visam nem a crença nem a descrença, mas sim o calor e a compreensão - humanos que estão mais preocupados com o problema atual da desumanidade do que com os problemas ultrapassados da filosofia - humanos que sacrificam suas vidas tratando a verdadeira questão do ódio, em vez da questão mítica de Deus. Sou apenas o começo – a primeira faísca – o melhor ainda está por vir.”

“Plight of A Pakistani (The Sonnet) The world sees us as a terrorist nation, Why is it so? Despite our love and care for family, Why do you deem us as extremist foe? As responsible citizens with a beating heart, We too want for our kids a world of peace. Yet whenever there's an act of terror, Why are we at the top of your suspect list! Every nation has terrorist elements, The Capitol insurrection is proof of it. But how can you blame an entire people, For the acts of a bunch of bigoted misfits! We don't ask you to show us pity. Just keep in mind, we too are part of humanity.”

“Why do women spend so much time in talking to their female peers? The answer can again be found in the process of biological evolution of the human mind. Just like the evolutionary expression of aggression in men, gossiping is an evolutionary feature of the female psychology. Women trade various secrets from their personal experiences through gossiping in order to create connection and intimacy with their female peers.”

“Reformer Needed (The Sonnet) To put the politicians straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the soldiers straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the scientists straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the philosophers straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the entrepreneurs straight, What's needed is a reformer. To put the preachers straight, What's needed is a reformer. And how does the reformer remain straight, By looking beyond the beliefs of binary lanes.”

“Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat - The Song [Intro] Marham na mazhab dekhe, Marham na dekhe mulk. Dunya meri zimmedari meri, This is the Naskar truth. [Verse 1] Jai Insaan, Cheytna Saagar; Jai Vivek, Vidyut Ujaagar. Rise Insaan, Ilaaj Ilaahi; Ana al Haq, Hayaat Peygamber. [Chorus] Ik Onkaar, Satnaam Shahaada; Koi bole paani, koi bole water. Born of ash, deed amartya; Dil on fire, aashiq ananta. Ik Onkaar, Satnaam Shahaada; Koi bole paani, koi bole water. Born of ash, deed amartya; Dil on fire, aashiq ananta. [Verse 2] Vision Viraat, Vajra Avinashi; Na koi dev, na koi daasi. Love is the law, tolerance is anthem; Dervish Divaane, Advaita Ruhani. [Chorus] Ik Onkaar, Satnaam Shahaada; Kisika mai dervish, kisika advaita. Born of ash, deed amartya; Dil on fire, aashiq ananta. [Verse 3 - Spoken] Na koi kaafir, na koi sant; Na andh-vishwas in dharmgranth. Love is my duty, brain is my flame; I'm signpost on the cosmic lane. [Bridge] Border ke paar, har koi yaar; Na koi ajnabi, har din Iftaar. Har ek mulk, mera hi mulk; Har ek culture, mera culture. [Chorus] Ek Insaan, aur ek hi lakshya; Moksh ka matlab ek hi manushya. Dharm se upar Insaan hi satya; Imaan Insaaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat. Marham na mazhab dekhe, Marham na dekhe mulk. Dunya meri zimmedari meri, This is the Naskar truth. [Verse 4] Karm se hum baney Vishwaroop, Reeti rivaaz sab andhaa jhooth. Naam se Maanav, karm se Marham; Dil na dekhe foreign-sanatan. [Chorus] Ek Insaan, Hoonkaar-e Asmaan; Rag rag Khaalsa, Noor-e Nadaan. No togetherness, no tomorrow; Tum hi ho sooraj, tum hi Insaan! Marham na mazhab dekhe, Marham na dekhe mulk. Dunya meri zimmedari meri, This is the Naskar truth. [Bridge] Khoon nahi, Rehmat pehchaan; Ek hi ummah - saara jahaan! Ek hi kalma - pyar ka peygaam; Jai Insaan, Noor-e Nadaan! Khoon nahi, Rehmat pehchaan; Ek hi ummah - saara jahaan! Ek hi kalma - pyar ka peygaam; Jai Insaan, Noor-e Nadaan! [Final Verse - Spoken] Insaan se ucha na vatan, na khoon, Na koi sanskaar, na koi kaanoon. Rehmat se jiye to har roz ramzaan, Insaan se mile Insaan ka sukoon. [Final Chorus] Jai Insaan, Cheytna Saagar; Jai Vivek, Vidyut Ujaagar. Koi bole water, koi bole paani; Koi bole darvish, koi sanyaasi. Utho Insaan, Marham ka Sagar; Ana al Haq, Vigyan Ujaagar. Koi bole water, koi bole paani; Koi bole scientist, koi bole sufi. [Outro] Marham na mazhab dekhe, Marham na dekhe mulk. Dunya meri zimmedari meri, This is the Naskar truth.”

“The lessons of relationship that our primordial ancestors learned are deeply encoded in the genetics of our neurobiological circuits of love. They are present from the moment we are born and activated at puberty by the cocktail of neurochemicals. It’s an elegant synchronized system. At first our brain weighs a potential partner, and if the person fits our ancestral wish list, we get a spike in the release of sex chemicals that makes us dizzy with a rush of unavoidable infatuation. It’s the first step down the primeval path of pair-bonding.”
