“I am for I think not (Sonnet 2674)

Every country needs just one person
to embody the best of humanity -
but I couldn't wait to find those people,
so I chose to be that person
from every culture and every country,

that's why I made these languages,
these cultures, these soils, my own,
no native, no foreign, it's all my own -

I let their air fill my lungs,
their passions permeate my veins,
their tears galvanize my heart,
their dreams resurrect my brain -

which is why, some ask for water, some ask pani -
somewhere I'm scientist, somewhere I'm sufi.

I cannot explain this to your puny
eurocentric analytical psyche,
even to try would be like explaining
neuroscience to a neanderthal -

all I can say is, I am for I am not -
I am for I think not - I don't live, I combust.”
― Abhijit Naskar, With Love From A Blue Rock

“Do not confuse dissolution of self with erasure of the self, when the self grows vast enough to contain the cosmos it dissolves automatically, and there is nothing to erase, it's only when you're fragmented that you flinch at the thought of erasure.”
― Abhijit Naskar, With Love From A Blue Rock
