Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Peace Sonnet Peace doesn't grow on trees, Nor is it produced in factories. It has been a concept of books, Must it stay that way for centuries! Where argumentation is afoot, The mission becomes a phantom. Where the mind thrives on tradition, Peace is an inconvenience to the norm. Peace is but a myth most foul, An annoying goal that demands a lot. We just prefer our cozy cocoons, Giving up any of it is just plain absurd. But there is a cure to the war disease. Loosen your knots and there'll be peace.”

“Sonnet of Culture Our culture their culture, Enough of this primitive nonsense. It may have suited our ancestors, But it suits not beings of conscience. Of all nations on the face of earth, My nation is the greatest. This is no behavior of the civilized, It's but a sign of the stupidest. The savage jungle or modern society, What would you like to be a part of? Your choice means absolutely nothing, Till you act on the accountability thereof. Boasting ancestry declares a dead character. Wake up from death to write a new chapter.”

“Self and Society (The Sonnet) I and you are not two but one, The space in-between is an illusion. The air you breathe is also in me, Then why hang on to separation! Where there is dark ignorance, There festers delusion most foul. Once you give in to such atrocity, Society breaks out in painful howl. Self and society are one whole being, That's how we make a humane world. But if this is none of your concern, You are but a bug with conscience curled. Fabric of society is everyone's business. It's time we breathe life into humaneness.”

“I have placed myself at your feet O Humanity, do what you may with me - love me if you want, kill me if you want, I won't resist, for my life is your keepsake - I live for you and I'll die for you, and when I am gone, your memories of me will give birth to me again and again, till every trace of separation is gone from the world.”

“Stop kneeling before lifeless images for there to be sanity and serenity - the world is not a tiny place that can be helped by some imaginary gods and goddesses - it needs living gods and goddesses - it needs you - it needs your tangible involvement in the welfare of the people, not mere amens and aums.”

“Civilization is built by heroes, who trample all fears under their feet and speak out to the world - I am free, I am immortal, I am indestructible - come all ye who have no home, I'll be your home - come all ye who cannot speak, I'll be your voice - come all ye who cannot stand, I'll be your legs - come all ye oppressed, tormented and discriminated - hold my hand and together we'll build the world, the humane way this time.”

“My Name is Human (The Sonnet) You asked, what's my nation, I say it's humanity. You asked, what's my language, I say it's magnanimity. You asked, what's my culture, I say it's humaneness. You asked, what's my tradition, I say it's humbleness. You asked, what's my gender, I say it's fortitude. You asked, what's my religion, I say it's servitude. You asked everything except my purpose. I tell you now, it's to unite the universe.”

“Who’s The Best (The Sonnet) Of all nations on earth, No nation is the best. Of all religions on earth, No religion is the best. Of all cultures on earth, No culture is the best, Of all colors on earth, No color is the best. Of all genders on earth, No gender is the best, Of all philosophies on earth, No philosophy is the best. The world is diverse for us to be strong, By walking together we'll fly high and long.”

Thirteen fourteen fifteen, To assimilate you must be keen. Sixteen seventeen eighteen, With kindness you must lean. Nineteen twenty twenty-one, It’s you that peace depends upon. Twenty-two twenty-three twenty-four, Give to the society more and more. Twenty-five twenty-six twenty-seven, Only actions can build an actual heaven. Twenty-eight twenty-nine thirty, Life is to lift the world, not party.”

“In today’s society the very humanity of a person is determined based on their nationality, race, religion, political affiliation, gender, sexuality and so on - as if, humanity is so puny that it could be packaged and labeled with the stale identities of society!”

“A creature that values human life above everything else, is a human, all others are animals… A scientist who shouts at a layperson, "I don't care what you believe" - is an animal. A preacher who shouts at a person of different faith, "you are going to hell, until you accept my God as one true God" - is an animal. A civilian who denies to stay home during a pandemic, shouting "sacrifice the weak and live free" - is an animal. A president who says "white skin is racially superior" - is an animal.”

“O My Dear Earthling (A Sonnet) O My Dear Earthling open your doors, For the supreme festival has arrived. The whole wide nature is rejoicing in love, Step outside cultures and celebrate life. The sky is engulfed with billions of smiles, Smiles that know not pettiness of society. Open your soul O Mighty Earthling, The wind of amity is here bearing unity. No more bounds on love, race and religion, Prejudice suits not a species of sapiens. Value we must character over conformity, It’s time we throw away all our allegiance. On guard we stand against differentiation, Hear all peddlers of hate – we are all one.”

“Love not Allegiance (A Sonnet) If I am remembered O Soldier of Destiny, Remember me with love not allegiance. If you place me on the altar of your heart, Make it not exclusive but exude acceptance. When the darkness around bothers you, Bask all you want in my timeless light. But when you see others in darkness, Forget your needs and serve with delight. My heart will never leave your backbone, So long as you have a cell crying for others. I will receive honor and my highest reward, When you annihilate yourself to wipe their tears. I will keep burning through you for eternity, Your actions will herald the victory of humanity.”

“Life Lived for Others (A Sonnet) Torrents of joy have brought me salvation, Bearing jewels of inclusion and unification. My mind and my whole being have gone lost, Into the rising tides of humanizing assimilation. Finally serenity has arrived at my doorstep, When I opened I found the bridge to others. Defying all agony and selfish insecurities, I discovered the supreme sentience in their cheer. Their joy is my joy and their worry is my worry, It is my vow upon the sacred pyre of conscience. I stand ready to become dust if it is needed, I am my gift to them, their smiles my recompense. There is no point in living for the shallow desires, Cause life is not lived till it's lived for others.”

“One human life is a thousand times more valuable than a thousand bibles, qurans, suttas and vedas - one human life is a thousand times more valuable than a thousand doctrines and rituals - one human life is a thousand times more valuable than a thousand theories and schools of thought - one human life is a thousand times more valuable than a thousand religions and ideologies.”

“Beyond sufism, beyond advaita, beyond christian mysticism, beyond humanism, beyond atheism, agnosticism and pantheism, there is a river - a river that's pure - a river that's chaste - a river that’s incorruptible - a river that has the power to breathe life into even the most degraded society - but you can't find it anywhere, for it doesn't exist in the way we usually perceive existence, that is, it doesn't exist as a tangible physical river, like the Hudson or the Thames or the Nile - rather it exists as particles in your brain, and all it needs is the right kick to get formed. And when enough such rivers start flowing from the fountainhead of enough awake brains, the whole world will turn into an ocean of vigor, virtue and love.”

“Geography divides people only if the people allow it - faith divides people only if the people allow it - intellect divides people only if the people allow it - politics divides people only if the people allow it. So, unless the people allow it, nothing can tear our world apart. Unless you allow it, nothing can tear our society apart.”
