Gente Mente Adelante


Book Description

"The struggle isn't over till the last drop of tear is wiped out." The scientist and reformer, Abhijit Naskar, who has been at the forefront of humankind's struggle against discrimination and prejudice, gives us a work of social uplift. He calls upon the beings of accountability: "¡Gente mente adelante, no retrocedas oh valiente! Forward O People, Forward O Mind, no matter the pangs, never look behind!"




The Gentalist


Book Description

The Humanitarian Scientist speaks. "The world has a ridiculously short attention span. It cannot stick to any one cause for more than a few days. They forgot about Palestine, they forgot about Afghanistan, they forgot about Jallianwala Bagh, and they’ll soon forget about Ukraine as well. The world forgets, but the suffering of the people continues. Don't be that world my friend, be a better world, a civilized and responsible world, only then we'll be able to prevent another Palestine crisis, another Afghanistan crisis, another Ukraine crisis, otherwise these events will keep recurring until everybody is six feet under."




Insan Himalayanoğlu


Book Description

Insan Himalayanoğlu is a himalayan triumph of reform over rigidity. Thus speaks Himalayanoğlu: “All the world's an asylum, All the people are lunatics. Some are but loonies of love, Some loonies run by prejudice. Some die running in love of currency, Some die sharing the currency of love. Beyond the grasp of dollar and euro, Love is the only nonvolatile currency in the world. It's good to be a loonie, If the reason is justly humane. When human welfare is at stake, It's only logical to be insane. Sane, insane - be as the need arises, To hell with the judgment of nitwits! In an organic world no sanity is absolute, Boldly walk the spectrum as the purpose fits.”




Visvavatan


Book Description

Thus speaks Naskar: "Letter to My Soldiers I am only the beginning - the beginning of a new kind of humans - humans who belong to not one culture, but many cultures - humans who speak not one language, but many languages - humans who study scriptures and science with equal enthusiasm, yet pledge allegiance to neither, and know how to use both in the benefit of humanity - humans who aim for neither belief nor disbelief, but warmth and understanding - humans who are more concerned with the real hard problem of inhumanity, than the outdated hard problem of consciousness - humans who sacrifice their life treating the real hard question of hate, rather than the mythical hard question of god. I am only the beginning - the first spark, if you may - the best are yet to come."




Honor He Wrote


Book Description

"Ancient relics belong in museum, not in driver's seat. It's for the young of head 'n heart to get the society lit." Abhijit Naskar's Honor He Wrote is a poetic celebration of life, love and diversity, which also makes Naskar the poet with most sonnets in history, at over 500 sonnets and counting.




Yarasistan


Book Description

"When culture is code for division, You gotta be uncultured to find assimilation. When hagiographies are passed on as heritage, To be heretic is the first course of action. Instead of being chained to the dead, Let us be each other's roots. Be a garland that celebrates life, Instead of a hangman's noose." Humanist to many, Sufi to some, Humanitarian Scientist to most, Abhijit Naskar has become synonymous with humankind's struggle for peace and harmony. And here the Himalayan Sonneteer offers us an intolerance-defying poetic treasure-trove of integration, inclusion and unification.




Visvavictor


Book Description

Visvavictor is a poetic victory of love and trust over all hate and fear in the world (visva). The humanitarian scientist speaks: "Where the end of fear ends all barrier, Where biases no longer run amok, Where end of assumption sets forth ascension, Where heritage no more wreaks havoc, Where the head is without bent, and the heart is never skint, Where the spine is without dent, and the eyes are without squint, Where Christian, Muslim, Sikh 'n Jew, sit and share a cup of stew, Where Buddhist, Atheist, Jain, Hindu, live and laugh as one life crew, There beyond, where sentience lets no storm to brew, Out of the fossil, into the fervor, I shall meet you."




Giants in Jeans


Book Description

"Divisionism and dollarism are the curse of society, yet society worships them as the greatest boon. Peace and peoplism are cussed as commie claptrap, while populism continues to give power to goons." Planet Earth's foremost giant of humanitarianism Abhijit Naskar gives us a string of hundred sonnets for a world without discrimination, disparity and division. With his usual simplicity he says: "Suits and boots are not sentience, Manners and etiquettes are not culture. Intellect and technology are not progress, Faith and tradition are not character."




The Centurion Sermon


Book Description

Abhijit Naskar's 100th Masterpiece. Thus speaks the humanitarian scientist. "Look from the gutter, all you see is one culture. Look from the sky, and you'll see a world full of color."
