Quote by Abhijit Naskar

“Either Aşkistan or Junglistan (A Sonnet) Ours is either aşkistan, Land of love founded on amity, Or it is an archaic junglistan, Run by contagious self-centricity. What is civilized is also unselfish, For selfishness makes the animal, Across the self there is humanity, What is unselfish is also accountable. Technology may bring comfort, But it doesn't ensure ascension, When comfort belongs to the privileged, Such progress is mere descension. Over 3 billion years have gone in selfishness, It's time to unself our soul and rise as sapiens.”

“Sonnet of People (The Sonnet) All is well when there's people with us, Without ‘em life is sugarcane without sugar, All is meaningful when there's people with us, Without ‘em life is a painting without color. People are the blood in my veins, I can breathe without oxygen but not people, Thus speaks the being called human, Thus lives the sapiens who's brave and noble. Community means compatriot unity, Unity means undivided amity, Amity means affectionate sanity, Sanity means serene humanity. Now one ponders the meaning of humanity. It means humble and affectionate for eternity.”

“For a very long time I considered low self-esteem to be some kind of virtue. But now I realize that the real sin is to deny God’s first love for me, to ignore my original goodness. Because without claiming that first love and that original goodness for myself, I lose touch with my true self and embark on the destructive search among the wrong people and in the wrong places for what can only be found in the house of my Father.”

“In an age of illusion, being authentic is a form of philosophical resistance - a refusal to betray the truth solely for the comfort of collective lies. It is to recognise that true freedom is found not in conformity, but in the courage to be honest, to think deeply, and to live unshackled by the chains of societal expectation.”
