Famous Abhijit Naskar Quotes

“Losing oneself in prayer won't do, losing oneself in meditation won’t do, if we must be lost, let us lose ourselves in resuscitating this dying world of ours with our sweat and blood. People think meditation will solve everything. And to some extent, even I thought this way when I was a teenager. But the fact of the matter is, it won't. It’s not bad mark you, but contrary to popular belief, it’s not the key to all the problems of society. We need ten percent meditation, ninety percent revolution. Better yet, we need a life where meditation is revolution, revolution is meditation. It is this simple. Make justice your meditation, make equity your meditation, make love your meditation, and you won't need any of the traditional meditation. The greatest meditation is revolution for assimilation. La mayor meditación es la revolución para la asimilación. Justicia es mi meditación - igualdad es mi meditación - humanidad es mi meditación. Society needs your active involvement, not your pretend involvement. I'll say it to you plainly. If you don’t wanna get involved, that's perfectly fine, but don't pretend that you are doing great service to the world by praying and meditating isolated from the actual troubles of society. Prayer as means of self-sustenance is okay, but it mustn't be glorified beyond that point. Worse than non-involvement is pretend involvement. Either get involved or don't, there's no praying. Either serve or don't, there's no praying. Either lift or don't, there's no praying.”

“Mi Humanidad Insiste (The Sonnet) Mi corazón insiste that I can't sit still, Till the society is human and thus starts living. Mi corazón insiste that I can't sleep in peace, Till I bring out the peace the world holds within. Mi conciencia insiste that I can't stop walking, Till I make the fallen rise to make their destiny. Mi conciencia insiste that I can't stop working, Till each human extends a hand out in solidarity. Mi alma insiste that my breath is not my own, Till I breathe life into the souls lost in misery. Mi alma insiste that I have no right over my veins, Till the veins of society are freed from disparity. Mi humanidad insiste the life of one is the life of all. Either we are one family or nothing at all.”

“Tierratitan, Sonnet I only have one advice for you, own your life, from head to toe - unapologetically alive and original, not a carbon copy, with second hand woe. Civilization is not a conjuring trick, Civilization is a long labor of life. You don't figure out everything overnight, You figure out things over time. Sweet dreams are made of sweat-n-dare. Sweat makes it sweet, dare brings it true. Sweet society is made of reason-n-care, When I'm your shelter, my shelter is you. I be your vision, you be my mission. Divided we drown, together, Tierratitan.”

“Quite often I'm accused of grandeur, as my vastness feels a threat to narrowness. Sun is the devil in narratives of the rigid, rays of the morning sting nasty on the bigoted. I'm accused of grandeur, for I embody justice - I'm accused of slander, for I embody tolerance - I'm accused of blasphemy, for I epitomize equality - every people, my home, hence, I'm such a nuisance.”

“Born Ape, Die Human (Antiseptic Sonnet) I'm born an ape, but I won't die an ape, I'll die the most spectacular human that ever lived - blasphemously tolerant, immeasurably expansive, impractically unbending, impossibly inclusive. The sun always stings like antiseptic, for lies lull with comfort of narcotics. Give me ten brains, hearts and spines, I'll give you a planet primed with peace.”

“I give you four pillars of humanhood - devotion, duty, acceptance and action - devotion to human interest, duty to stand up to discrimination, bigotry and injustice, acceptance of all humans regardless of belief, intellect and status, and action to eliminate the issues in one's society.”

“Village Vesuvius (The Sonnet) Be a think tank of life, not a septic tank of prejudice. Stand messenger, stand human, not a brainless host to malice. The book of truth is not a book of answers, the book of truth is a book of questions. The book of life is not a book of laws, the book of life is a book of conscience. Whenever, wherever, fanaticism weaponizes fear, human hearts gotta rise, abandoning tranquility. Whenever chowderheads infringe on love and reason, time be my testament - My World, My Responsibility! Pillar of heavens I stand, composed as the Himalayas. Persecute any community, and I am the Village Vesuvius.”

“Be The Change, Not The Caption (Sonnet) Do good, don't delegate. Go vital, not viral. Dare the deed, not drama. Be the specimen, not a spectacle. Speak truth, not trends. Carve meaning, not metrics. Plant roots, not rumors. Foster oneness, not optics. Lend a hand, not hashtag. Trigger action, not attention. Stir up lives, not likes. Be the change, not the caption.”

“Naskar not Nascar (The Sonnet) Naskar is an alter ego, Naskar is a calling, a madness bigger than sanity, not chained to one being. Even Abi is no match for Naskar, Abi will perish, not Naskar. Naskar is a chemical catastrophe, priming humans as kind thunder. Naskar is factory of humanitarians, imbued with wonders against malice. Muscle up your heart, heart up your brain, uncontaminated by leanings of prejudice. Nascar is a race, Naskar is a journey, voyage of sapiens ushering in humanity. Surpassing constraints of bigotry, Naskar is Manifest Humanity.”
