Iftar-e Insaniyat: The First Supper Quotes

“I Exist for I Dissolve in All (Sonnet 2265) My brain is multilingual, my heart is multicultural, my life is multidimensional, I exist for I dissolve in all. You barely speak one language, ramble doctrines from one dead book, can't see beyond the customs of your tribe, yet you say, your truth is the cosmic truth! Fanaticism is compensation for insecurity, supremacy is compensation for inferiority. Over a hundred books, thousands of sonnets, half a thousand limericks, half a thousand free verse poems, yet I still say, I'm incomplete.”

“Stand Human Anyway (Sonnet 2262) If Jesus didn't exist, Moses didn't exist, Mohammed didn't exist, Vyas and Sid didn't exist, I'll still stand just as divine, just as alive, just as human. If the bible didn't exist, koran didn't exist, torah didn't exist, and vedas didn't exist, I'll still stand just as sacred, just as aware, just as human. If I didn't exist, my writings didn't exist, stand human anyway, within you is the ore. Don't outsource, you are the source, feet rooted in soil, not shackled in folklore.”
