“There's nothing uglier than an ugly mouth, there's nothing filthier than a filthy heart. I have said many a times - extreme logic ruins the sweetness of life, just like extreme of faith ruins all common sense, and facilitates superstition. That's why you gotta be grown up enough to practice the human balance between logic and fiction, even if it means attracting mockery from militant atheists as well as religious fundamentalists.”

“Forgetting head, heritage 'n sanity,
I have placed you heartmidst.

“Someone asked me the other day, do I like to write prose better or poetry? To which I can only say - both are fundamental to my works. In fact, I started out with prose, as you might remember - and my most invigorating ideas came to this world in the form of prose. Along the way, I felt a craving for poetry, so quite on a whim I wrote the first sonnet. Suddenly an entire new horizon opened up to me. Eventually prose and poetry became equally potent carrier of my ideas - they became complimentary to each other - they became supplementary to each other. However, I do admit, as I grow older, I'm getting more and more drawn towards poetry as my primary vessel.”

“Abandon divide, adopt but life. Contain the world in your chest of light.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Sonnet 1284

Human chest contains miracles of the cosmos,
Animal chest contains but the brutal jungle.
Choice is yours, what shall you facilitate -
a world of brutality or a world of miracle!

Be a miracle or be an animal, choice is yours;
In your veins brews the dream of civilization.
The world is in dire need of miracle humans,
There is no such thing as miracle animal.

This ribcage ends up a prison most times,
But it can also be a sanctuary - a paradise.
Entertain hate, and you are a prisoner;
Give in to love, lo you usher into light!

Abandon divide, adopt but life.
Contain the world in your chest of light.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Ours is an age of reckoning - savages call it wokeness, I call it correctiveness. And it is only through correction that this savage species might, just might, one day become human. It is only through correction we apes might one day usher into the dawn of humanity.

As usual, those who are fixed in the ways of the forefathers would instantly react to this as woke propaganda. So be it.

Propaganda is everywhere - bigoted apes give in to their primitive ancestry and propagate hate and division - I, a civilized ape, refuse my innate primitiveness and choose to propagate love and inclusion. Savages choose tradition, I am human, so I choose transformation.”

“You'll never fathom the vastness of my mind, with your puny binary eyes of belief and disbelief - capitalism and socialism - democracy and autocracy - logicality and sentimentality. Or let me put it another way. You can neither fathom nor manifest the true vastness of the human mind, with your puny binary eyes of belief and disbelief - facts and fiction - capitalism and socialism - democracy and autocracy - logicality and sentimentality. To step into the valley of light, you gotta abandon all divide.”

“Tolerating intolerance is passive hate.”

“Buddhas, Christs and Mevlanas don't live in caves, they walk amongst you. You know why? Because we cannot change the world from the sidelines. You may play the make believe of nonattachment all you want - and it may bring you personal comfort for the time being, but it doesn't alleviate human suffering from the world one bit.

The enlightenment bit is a small part of the equation. How you live afterwards determines the true worth of that enlightenment. If your idea of enlightenment revolves around some prehistoric routine of sitting and chanting, or crouching and praying, then such enlightenment is no enlightenment, but derangement.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Iman Insaniyat, Mazhab Muhabbat: Pani, Agua, Water, It's All One

“Animal awareness is the perfect carrier of propaganda - it is the ideal facilitator of animal conditioning, while human awareness is the only civilized answer. Let me show you how animal conditioning through propaganda works.

I'll mention a word, and you'll tell me what's the first thing that comes to your mind.

And the word is - "terrorism".

Here, the first thing a white american nationalist will think of, is "arabs". Ask an indian hindu nationalist the same question, and their first thought would be "pakistan". In the same way, israeli zionists would automatically associate the word terrorism with palestine.

Like it or not, that's animal nature. Every moment you are bombarded with materials that have no relation to truth and humanity, as far as the civilized mind could see. Through cinema, through video games, through news - propaganda is everywhere. And no, I am not talking about some grand conspiracy. Apes, who still cannot look past the color of skin and language of tongue, do not have the brains to orchestrate some grand scheme of manipulation - all they can do is, simply peddle the same old rotten narrative of hate and fanaticism repeatedly, and the rest is taken care of by the primitive survival instinct of the ape brain.

So, what's the way out? Simple - start using that grand instrument you carry on your shoulders, which you call a brain - driven by an actual civilized craving for uplift and illumination.”

“I am the oath of a world divine,
I am the promise of a planet pious.
My piety is not rooted in dead routine,
But in a humane mix of reason and warmth.”

Distance is excuse for the dead.

Burn up the hate in a monsoon of love!”
