“Why I am Human (The Sonnet) Some explain why they are catholic, Some explain why they are atheist, Some explain why they are muslim, Some explain why they are socialist. Some explain why they are jew, Some explain why they are buddhist, Some explain why they are hindu, Some explain why they are humanist. I heard plenty people explain, Why they are what they are, But I'm yet to hear one person say, First I am human, all else later. What is this mad obsession with all the ism! Why can't we be just human, plain and simple!”

“Virtue No Ism (The Sonnet) What is this obsession with ism before human! Why are we still catering to ancestral stupidity! Are we really gonna let their shortsightedness, To define our capacity, character and destiny! Some of them might have had the vision of unity, Hence they spoke of peace and neighborly love. But most lacked the sight to live beyond ism, And we continue to prioritize ism over love. No ideology has a monopoly over virtue, Virtues are born of mind, not ideology. Yet all ideologies try to codify virtue, By doing so they only vilify all virtuosity. All virtues are but the descendants of love. To codify virtue is to ruin the universality of love.”

“Vagabond Light (The Sonnet) When the tide of realization comes, Theories and concepts cause but decay. In the kingdom of absolute oneness, Stoneage constructs wither and fade away. What am I gonna do with theories! I'm no intellectual obligated to be a smartass. I am but a fakir, a vagabond who knows nothing. So I submit myself at the mercy of the lovers. I'm tired of trying to be important to the shallow, I'm tired of trying to make sense to the senseless. Adjusting to prehistoric habits of a dualistic world, The mind loses touch with its magical magnificence. Let the light shine bright, dim it not to suit the prisoners! Does the sun come with a dimmer, because its radiance dimwits cannot bear!”

“Weapons are essentially the invention of science, be it our modern nukes or ancient swords and arrows. Yet most of the bloodshed throughout history has been blamed totally upon religion, without a single mention of science being a party to it. If religion has done harm, so has science. If science has done good, so has religion. The fact of the matter is, neither science nor religion is the cause of good and evil in the world, they are merely an excuse. It's the human mind that's the root of all good and evil - science and religion are merely accessory to the intention.”

“Helper is Herald (The Sonnet) Every peacemaker is muslim, Every lover is christian. Every helper is buddhist, Every lifter is human. Every lovenut is sufi, Every braveheart is latin. Every collectivist is jew, Every secularist is advaitin. All labels are futile, If there's no substance underneath. Focus on substance as a whole being, Leave the labeling to the elite. The helper is the herald, the lifter is the light. In a world with double vision, selflessness is the only sight.”

“Nothing Yet Everything (The Sonnet) I am no sufi, yet, Every sufi is my reflection. I am no advaitin, yet, Every advaitin is my reflection. I am no mystic, yet, Every mystic is my reflection. I am no buddha, yet, Every buddha is my reflection. I am no humanist, yet, Every humanist is my reflection. I am no humanitarian, yet, Every humanitarian is my reflection. I am nothing, that's why I am everything. Or perhaps, I'm everything, that's why I'm nothing!”

“Radioactive Mind (The Sonnet) In front of the radioactivity of mind, Radioactivity of matter turns dim. In front of the joules of a just heart, A billion ohms of hate become nil. Hate is the question, Heart is the answer. Hate is the sickness, Heart is the cure. Prejudice is the ailment, Piety is the cure. What is piety you ask! Nothing but kindness more pure. Kindness is divinity, kindness is sanity. Wasting it to codify life is sheer stupidity.”
