Religious Harmony Quotes

“No God, Only Goodness (The Sonnet) Kingdom of God is manifestation, Of a nonsectarian mind. It means conquering our biases, It means conquering all drives of divide. True goodness is devoid of division, For division is antithesis of goodness. Whatever is civilized is nonsectarian, Whoever is human is undivided. There is no heaven, only good human, There is no paradise, only good people. When people and people live as one people, That is a human society, alive and civil. Civility is just a fancy synonym for amity. Divinity is the archaic term for indivisibility.”

“The God Sonnet I gave you the tablets at Sinai, I drove your chariot at Kurukshetra. I gave you the ayats word by word, I woke up Siddhartha 'n the carpenter. No matter the time, age 'n technology, I always rise to treat the common cold. Amidst a world full of sore coldness, I only need ten vessels absurdly bold. I have nothing to do with perfection, Far from it, I've got plenty to improve. With each new vessel my sight broadens, With each identity my existence renewed. Keeper am I of this terrestrial neighborhood. I am your innermost fire of god and good.”

“Killing a bunch of Jihadis may be morally justified, to save humanity from their wrath, but it won't terminate Jihad for long. Jihad or Holy war would keep festering one way or another, until religious fundamentalism is eradicated from the human society. Until the whole humanity learns to scrutinize its most revered scriptures with the sharp tool of reasoning, Jihad will keep on striking over the world. If one does not have the basic conscientious capacity to refute the primitive textual verses of the scriptures that demand one to kill or torture another being for holding a different belief system than one's own, then that entity is no being of the civilized human society, it is merely a pest from the stone-age. No Quran, no Bible, no Gita, no Cow, is greater than the human self. There shall be hope for harmony and peace in the world, only when fundamentalism is destroyed forever. Harmony is not a luxury, it is an existential necessity of the species. And to achieve it, if a hundred Bibles have to be sacrificed, then be it. But for no Bible, Quran or Gita, can harmony be compromised.”

“O my brave Almighty Human, with the ever-effulgent flow of courage, conscience and compassion, turn yourself into a vivacious humanizer, and start walking with bold footsteps while eliminating racism, terminating misogyny, destroying homophobia and all other primitiveness that have turned humanity into the most inhuman species on earth.”

“Language of God (The Sonnet) A Jew may say, Hebrew is the language of god. A Christian may say, Aramaic is the language of god. A Muslim will say, Arabic is the language of god. A Hindu will say, Sanskrit is the language of god. A biologist may say, DNA is the language of god. Mathematicians say, math is the language of god. A psychiatrist may say, libido is the language of god. Physicists say, Quantum Mechanics is language of god. A politician may say, control is the language of god. A capitalist may say, currency is the language of god. A cop may say, law and order are the language of god. A philosopher may say, wisdom is the language of god. I don't know all that, I'm a being most ordinary 'n simple. I only know that kindness is the language of a human.”

“World Gospel (The Sonnet) So long as there is selfishness, There is no Christmas. So long as there is occupation, There is no Hanukkah. So long as there is cruelty, There is no Ramadan. Till we end militant atheism, There is no Humanism. Till you conquer superstition, There is no Diwali. So long as there is division, There is no Vaisakhi. So long as there is inequality, There is no Fourth of July. Till we abolish hate from earth, At half mast all flags must fly.”

“It's not enough to outgrow the divisions in culture, we must also outgrow the divisions in intellect. For example, if you think theology is all about the supernatural, it doesn't mean the entire field of theology is nonsense, it just means, you are studying the wrong kind of theology – you are stuck with an archaic notion of theology. Likewise, if you think science is all about cold facts and figures, then you are studying the wrong kind of science – you are stuck with an archaic notion of science. Till you develop a common humane ground underneath your feet, all the facts and all the faith won't do you any good.”

“Plenty Room For All (The Sonnet) Turban, Hijab, Habit or Tuxedo, Wear whatever feels like second skin. No need to justify to judgmental apes, Life's too short to be wasted on fiends. Let them just fade away, as vestigials of evolution. Savagery requires treatment, not serious consideration. To be treated as a human being, One must behave as human being. Faith, intellect, both are poison, If the heart remains ever so mean. There's plenty room for all thoughts, No matter the measures of books 'n brain. Fiction, reason, all are welcome, On my earth where but love reigns.”

“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.”

“Everybody has imaginary friends, My imaginary friend is my late teacher, And I find it therapeutic to talk to him, Whenever I hit rock bottom during disaster. Quite like air, water and food, It's something we humans need to survive. Last thing this world needs is more war to prove whose imaginary friend bears the greatest of might.”

“Sonnet 1142 Naskar the scientist says, Science that lifts no human condition, is not science but superstition. Naskar the monk says, Inclusion is illumination, discrimination is delusion. Naskar the philosopher says, Better lose truth, than lose humanity - Better lose truth, than lose love. Naskar the sufi says, Sense yourself till you sense nothing but love. Naskar the humanist says, I don't care about your belief or disbelief, all I care about is your behavior with others. Naskar the humanitarian says, each human must earn their admission into the human race with humane actions. The spirit of love speaks of love, no matter the faith and field. Hate is but a mark of narrowness - When you expand heart and soul, whole world becomes kin and kith.”

“Chrismadan (The Sonnet) What happens when two ancient cultures come together! They create a spectacular specimen called dervish advaitin. When mistletoe and menorrah combine, heart shines brighter, Beyond belief 'n disbelief, there's a land most enlightening. Keep your outdated sectarian identities to yourself, I am Jewistian, Hinduslim, or simply Human Universal. Be the next civilized step of humankind's evolution, Not just another savage vessel of mistakes ancestral. Revitalized by Ramadan, humanized by Christmas, Let's celebrate Chrismadan, as well as Hanukkawali. Instead of carrying on as second-hand savages, Habibi come, let us start living with humanity! When all religions combine, a modern human is born. Without integration there is no dawn, just endless mourn.”

“More muslims die from Islamist extremism than any other people. So don't you dare tell me, Islam is the same as Islamism! Islam is a people, Islamism is a sickness, just like Christianity is a people, Christian nationalism is a sickness - Hinduism is a people, Hindutva is a sickness - Atheism is a people, militant atheism is a sickness. And unless the peaceloving humans from each of these communities reach out to one another with a hand of integration, the nutcases from each of these communities will drag us all down the road of death and despair.”

“Islamophobia doesn't disappear simply because you choose to close your eyes. Can you stand by a dehumanized muslim, against the bigoted barbarians of your own culture, and speak out at the top of your voice and conviction - I am a muslim, just as much as I am a christian - I am a muslim, just as much as I am a jew - I am a muslim, just as much as I am a buddhist - hindu - or atheist? Can you? Because, until every threat to the welfare of the dehumanized humans actually, genuinely, internally feels like a threat to your own family, no phobia will ever come to an end - no hatred will ever face demise. Till every culture, every country, every corner of the planet, becomes our own culture, our own country, our own home, there is no peace, there will never be peace. And this, my friend, is called practical divinity, practical sufism, practical nondualism, and practical humanism. Or better yet, this is the ism beyond all isms - this is the ism that concerns the life, laughter and loveliness of the entire humankind - this - is humanity.”

“It doesn't matter whether you are muslim, christian, jew or atheist. It doesn't matter whether you are black, white, brown or martian. If you have love in your heart and kindness in your hands, then you are human. But if your existence is anemic of love and kindness, then no matter how human you look, and how many Sundays and Fridays you spend at the church or the mosque, you ain't no human.”

“If you believe, God is the supreme creator of everything, then God is also the one who gave you a brain. Use it. Likewise, if you know that we have evolved from the apes through natural selection, then you should also know about the fascinating mental faculty we developed alongside reason, called empathy. Use it. Some might say, it is cowardly of me to not pick any side with confidence. Well, I am a behaviorist after all. You don't expect me to peddle the same old dualistic ideologies that philosophers and theologians have been peddling for centuries, do you - that too with a complete disregard for the necessities of the everyday mind! I want to induce integration in the world, not conversion. So I say, if you believe in God, make it a reason for assimilation, not segregation. If you prefer reason, use it for warm ascension, not cold and fancy descension.”
