“How do we erase phobia from the world? First make a name for yourself, then associate that name to everything the world is ignorantly afraid of. In a pavlovian world where rating-hungry separatist media has conditioned the people to subconsciously relate every act of terror to a specific community, use your life to decondition the world - stand as the first human who is not afraid of humankind. That's why I say - I am a muslim poet, a humanitarian scientist, a latin lover, and an advaitin monk - I am an alternate dimension - an immeasurable dimension - where human oneness takes preference over animal separateness.”

“English is my second language, My first language is love. Neuroscience is my second sense, My first sense is love. Theology is my second faith, My first faith is interfaith. Philosophy is my second nature, My first nature is to assimilate. All labels are second labels, Our native label is human. All tradition is second tradition, Earth's native tradition is compassion.”

“Sonnet 1144 Istanbul to Alpha Centauri, Cosmos courses in my corpuscles. Religion, nation, stuff it all, Benevolence makes the world livable. Din, dünya, milliyet falan, hiç umurumda değil. Sen mutlu ol - bana yeter. Scripture, constitution, god, government, Nothing matters to me, except behavior. The greatest iftar is to break the fast of apathy, with the feast of affection. Sin humano no hay dios, Where there is no kindness there is no divine intervention. Sapiens intervention is divine intervention, There is nothing higher or more mighty. When we are obliterated in lifting the fallen, That's the living manifestation of the almighty.”

“Himalayan Sonneteer Sonnet 2 Just like every family needs a pillar, Every generation needs a rock. All may sprinkle salt on each other's wounds, You for one, be the ointment to the epoch. Be the foundation stone to civilization, Be the walking measure of human character. You are the definition of sapience, You are the very definer. Let no law define your duty, Let no scripture determine goodness. Let no ancestor imprison your identity, Expand, explore and usher into sentience. You are the illusion, you are the truth. When evil hangs heavy, you gotta blow your fuse.”
