Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Each citizen must become a government unto themselves - each citizen must become law unto themselves. In other words, each citizen must become a living constitution unto themselves, with the emphasis on living, which means ever-evolving and never-rigid. Be an example of growth in the world and the world will start to grow around you out of its disparities, biases and prejudices.”

“Billion-Dollar Grave (The Sonnet) All our life we work hard to buy golden chains. With which we then bind ourselves. What's the point of living as fancy slaves? What will we do with our billion-dollar graves? We sit on our couch covering our eyes, Then we yell, why everything is so very dark! But no one hears for they are also shouting, Praying for a messiah to bring back life's spark. We've forged fascist fences out of all our gold, And have placed them as walls around us. Then we shout out - help, help, And beg to be saved by the universe! Greed of dollar is the toxic mold on the green of life. Life flourishes on moderation, not consumerist strife.”

“You are the gospel you need to read, You are the path you need to walk. You are the torch you need to light, You are the voice you need to talk. You are the sight you need to see, You are the thirst you need to quench. You are the warmth you need to wear, You are the drought you need to drench. You are the muck you need to mend, You are the wrong you need to right. You are the storm you need to brave, You are the fate you need to write.”

“Sonnet of Life Lessons Rich is not the one who's got a lot of dough, But one whose touch make others forget their woe. Happy is not the one who's always chasing pleasure, But one who forgets all pleasure helping another grow. Success is not about getting recognition, Success is about achieving excellence beyond norm. Achievement is not when you reach a certain goal, But when your goal lifts others beyond your home. Destiny is not a script written by a superman, But one you write yourself with your labor and sweat. Sanctity is not what priests sell you at the church, But how you behave with others outside the church gate. Nobody can give you lessons of life packed in a few lines. If you know to help another, your heart knows all the lines.”

“You Are The Universe (The Sonnet) You don't carry the torch, you are the torch. You don't build the bridge, you are the bridge. You don't pave the way, you are the way. You don't make peace, you are the peace. You don't build the future, you are the future. You don't build civilization, you are civilization. You don't serve the society, you are the society. You don't work for reform, you are reformation. You don't walk the path, you are the path. You don't lift humanity, you are the humanity. You don't make progress, you are the progress. You don't serve the community, you are community. You don't live in the universe, you are the universe. Dimension destiny unfolds only in the human heart.”

“Empirically speaking, there is no such thing as history, destiny and even future for that matter, what there really is, is the “now”. And this very “now” – this very moment is the only thing which you have in your hands – in fact, it is the only time that actually exists – the “now”. So, be aware of that “now”and you will literally begin to see all moments like a true seer, without all the mystical nonsense.”

“Fugitive Peace (Sonnet 2219) In the opera of war, peace is fugitive - thinking soldiers are no good to state, either you kill without question, and grab your medal, or get discharged dishonorably. Thinking citizens are no good to democracy, either you obey blind or be branded a terrorist. Either you hold your mouth, mind and backbone, or be jailed as an anarchist. If you want to be an actor, don't go to film school, become an intern to some politician. Some say secularism is in their blood, some say liberty, all the while being the posterboys of persecution. No politician will prioritize peace, if they did, they would be out of business. War is the currency of political power - abandon fanaticism, and politicians go extinct.”

“Neighbor Before Nation (Sonnet 2201) Death of soldiers is PR goldmine for nationalist nutters, no matter the side, because it gives them the appetizing ammunition to sell some more fear, some more prejudice, some more fanatic tribalism, neighbor fighting neighbor, all wrapped in cute pills of patriotism - which ultimately manufactures some more orphans, some more widows, some more elderly who lose their hope. Trenches don't have a right side and wrong side, they only have one side, the side of dogma and lies. Asses to asses, cheek to cheek, apes laud the apes, declaring true apehood through their half-open flies.”

“Democracy on Drugs, Sonnet (Operation Opium) Revolution a day keeps corruption away, freethinking days prevent genocidal nights. Citizens without brain leads to democracy on drugs, paranoia is lifeblood for power-hungry parasites. Parasites thrive on gaslighting neighbors, peaceful coexistence is a threat to political power. Politicians remain safe through war and drought, it's the people who pay with blood, money and tears. Parasites don't have nationality, parasites don't have religion, parasites only have a bottomless hunger to keep the throne by calculated cleansing. Nationalism has nothing to do with culture, fundamentalism has nothing to do with religion. Win a war, lose a war, politicians lose nothing, living off domesticated sheep comatosed by opium.”

“The Great Superstition (Sonnet) Fundamentalists radicalize children for illegal terrorism, nationalists radicalize children for legal terrorism, I radicalize children for peace-n-oneness, using only their brain and backbone, without spilling the blood of human. Only leeches live by guns and call it honor, brainwashed by the witchcraft of patriotism. Fundamentalism, nationalism, these are the real witchcraft, still practiced by modern savages. Teachers, coppers, politicians, civil servants, all (most) mindlessly carry the paradigm of death. Give me a hundred humanitarian hearts, I'll wipe out the very concept of war. Pack your flags with other talismans, there is no greater superstition than the superstition of nation.”

“Planet of Apes (Real Peace Sonnet) Stronger the military, stupider the citizens. Louder the ammunition, lousier the education. Mightier the missiles, measlier the minds. Sharper the snipers, sicklier the spines. Fuller the magazines, feebler the veins. Bolder the bombs, wobblier the brains. More titanic the tanks, more pathetic the primates. World in trance of arms, is a planet of the apes.”

“World War Peace (The Sonnet) The same paradigm that produces soldiers, produces terrorists. In fact, soldiers are just government approved terrorists. Till the military is the most dishonorable profession on earth, you can forget about world peace, forget about peaceful coexistence. Military are the real terrorists, regular terrorists are the byproducts, all manufactured by state leaders, sponsored by jungle civilians. Love of country is the root of all war, Every patriot is a potential terrorist. Learn to love the world as one country, The paradigm will shift from war to peace.”

“Diagnosis: Patriotism (The Sonnet) You know what distinguishes a reformist from a terrorist! The capacity to destroy the world, yet choosing not to. The capacity to press the button, yet choosing not to. The capacity to pull the trigger, yet choosing not to. The capacity to oblige the state, but choosing humanity instead. The capacity to be patriotic, yet choosing to be human instead. War is the symptom, patriotism is the disease. Terrorists harbor patriotism, Reformists harbor peace.”
