Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Astrology is the dumbest superstition of all, your date of birth has zero effect on your destiny, but your place of birth, on the other hand, shapes a great deal of your life and character. Someone born in Paris demands from their parents, that they must go on a world tour again this year, someone born in Palestine asks their parents, can they have a small doll this year.”

“Naskar works in mysterious ways (Sonnet 2821) Naskar is not linear, Naskar is not binary, remember that, before you start analyzing Naskar with your two little backwater, linear, binary brain cells. I roam across dimensions, across disciplines, across cultures, languages, and timelines, across entire spectrums of electrochemical experiences, of which the tribally paralyzed carbon based, mammalian, biped lifeform can only register a sliver. I'm a life containing a moment, I'm a moment containing a lifetime. I'm a mind containing a message, I'm the message containing a mind.”

“I am pain-stricken to say, since the moment I was born, I have found nothing extraordinary in this ancient land of greatness to be exceptionally proud of. I am not a proud Indian. India at its present condition has given me no reason to feel proud. However, I do feel proud of the ancient Indians, just like I feel proud of the ancient Greeks, the Mayans, the ancient Egyptians, the Babylonians and so on. Scientists are beyond borders, just like the ancient scientists of India, whom you prefer to call as sages.”

“While Indian CEOs in Non-Indian companies are getting all the praise and admiration from the Indians, startups born on Indian soil remain unrecognized - this is not a matter of pride, it's a matter of shame, especially for a population whose history is replete with mathematical, scientific and philosophical achievements.”

“There is no such thing as Hinduism - the actual phrase is Sanatana Dharma, which is not a religion, but an everyday sense of oneness or advaita - which is the very backbone of the Indian society. Only in India people celebrate Eid with as much enthusiasm as they celebrate Diwali - they celebrate Christmas with as much enthusiasm as they celebrate Nanak Jayanti - and that's Sanatana Dharma for you.”

“Obscurity Establish Greatness (Sonnet) I grew up in a 20ft/20ft one-room house, used to walk an hour to get to school - and although I never knew what luxury was, I'm just grateful, I never had to starve - I never had to wear torn clothes, never had to experience a leaky roof, unlike my parents, who grew up poor, as neither of my grandfathers were good providers. Like my father, his father was a factory worker, but unlike my father, he could barely feed his family, and my other grandfather was a poor priest, who too could barely provide for his family, with the little money he earned from religious ceremonies. My parents grew up in abject poverty, I grew up in modest security, and all of it has kept me grounded. Little obscurity is essential for building character - luxury stunts growth, obscurity establish greatness.”
