“From the ground your eyes can only see a block or two. Stand on the terrace, and you could see much of a small town. The higher you go, the more you see - and as your horizon keeps expanding there comes a point when the entire planet unfolds in front of your eyes - no borders, no ideologies, no institutions - just one planet - one world. Divisions exist only in the mind of lower creatures - the higher you rise, the more undivided you become - and the more undivided you become, the more human you become. Look from the gutter, all you see is one culture. Look from the sky, and you'll see a world full of color.”

“Sonnet 1152

In Korea, I am Ingan -
In Turkiye, I am Insan.
In Latam, Soy Humano -
In North America, I'm Human.

In hindi, I am Khichdi*,
A *hodge-podge of cultures,
Few have the mind to stomach,
while tribals feel perturbed.

Life is love, love is life -
all other existence is null and void.
World is love, love is the world -
all other paradigm is poison voyage.”
Abhijit Naskar, Visvavictor: Kanima Akiyor Kainat

long enough in a cold climate,
in about 100 generations or so,
their descendants will be born white.”
Abhijit Naskar, Bulletproof Backbone: Injustice Not Allowed on My Watch

Abhijit Naskar
“Never confuse culture with state. Some of the richest cultures of the world often end up with some of the most regressive states in the world - Türkiye, Azerbaijan, India, Italy to name a few, in the context of 2023.

So I repeat, never let your disapproval of a government make you bitter towards a culture. Government never reflects culture - if it did, I would not have penned a single Turkish word in my works - as opposed to the fact that, the Turkish culture is an intrinsic element of Naskarean literature.”
Abhijit Naskar, Bulletproof Backbone: Injustice Not Allowed on My Watch

Abhijit Naskar
“What is Naskar (The Sonnet)

Naskar is a culture unto themselves,
Naskar is a nation unto themselves.
Naskar is a planet unto themselves,
Naskar is a paradigm unto themselves.

Naskar culture is integration,
Naskar nation is world nation.
Naskar planet is borderless,
Naskar paradigm is undivision.

Naskar is not a he or she,
Naskar is the whole of humanity.
Naskar is neither east nor west,
Naskarosphere is conscious unity.

Naskar is just a lesser synonym,
The original name is Human Being.”
