“Ben seni rahat etmeye gelmedim,
Ben seni berbat etmeye geldim.
I have come to destroy every
last trace of the prehistoric you,
so that a new human can usher
into a new world - a kind world,
a curious world, a human world.”

“Discipline of the Sikh,
Enthusiasm of the Christian,
Brotherhood of the Muslim,
Nonviolence of the Jain,
Clarity of the Buddhist,
Groundedness of the Hindu,
Rationality of the Atheist,
Resilience of the Jew -
Take the good from everyone,
Mind expands through assimilation.
Past errors mustn't continue as tradition,
Oneness is divinity, division is damnation.”

“There is nothing called 'nothing'!”
“Not aim for nondivision, we gotta start from nondivision - not aim for secularism, we gotta start from secularism - not aim for harmony, we gotta start from harmony.
Harmony is the starting point - integration is the starting point - universal acceptance is the starting point. It is this simple, yet why do we complicate it with so much intellectual jargon, like existentialism, empiricism, humanism and so on!
Why can't the human simply be human!
A real existentialist pays attention to existence, not to existentialism. A real empiricist pays attention to the rightful use of empirical evidence, not to mere empiricism. A real humanist pays attention to a life of human substance, not to shallow theoretical concepts like humanism.”

“Only you can remove your anxiety,
Only you can bring you clarity.
What the hell are you doing
at the feet of fraudsters!
Go out and discover your own reality.”

“Intellect is not the answer,
Belief is not the answer.
These only amplify what we really are,
Good becomes great, jerk becomes jerker.”

“Many fervor, many faiths,
thus the world is made.
World without secularism
is world of the dead.”

“Together we care, together we dare -
Kindness turns air into breath,
Cruelty turns breath back into air.”
