Sonnet of Chemical Reality
The universe is our reflection,
We are the reflection of the universe.
What is inside is also outside,
What is outside is also inside of us.
No reality exists without human control,
Reality outside our control is imagination.
Mental chemicals produce all reality,
All can be altered with mindful action.
Mind is mightier than muscle,
Kindness is braver than cruelty.
All reform is born of mental chemicals,
Reform yourself and there'll be universality.
Truth beyond perception is futile speculation.
Let's focus on life and improve human condition.

No Such Thing as Objective Truth | Sin Dios Sí Hay Divinidad
There is no such thing as an objective truth, it’s all subjective. Unless the brain finds a way to observe the universe, independent of the brain, every truth is subjective truth.
To hell with truth, I say! Better lose truth, than lose your humanity. Better lose truth, than lose love. Love first, truth second. Humanity first, intelligence second!
My theology is not rooted in God, but in people. My philosophy is not rooted in knowledge, but in people. My science is not rooted in reason, but in people. Mi iglesia son humanos, mi cielo son humanos, mi fe son humanos.
Divinity and worship are two different things. Worship is an act of self-preservation, divinity is an act of self-annihilation – divinity is annihilation of the self for the uplift of others. Let the people find a shelter in you, and you shall attain an eternal shelter in them. Un corazón amable es un corazón religioso.
Where there is indoctrination, there is control. Where there is control, there is no love. And where there is no love, there is no religion. Scripture is literature, period – nothing more, nothing less. If you cannot speak of religion, without quoting your scripture, you don’t understand religion.
In the fight between love and god, love always wins. And whenever love wins, god wins. Why? Because god is love, god is oneness. And love is but oneness in practice. Love is not something that merely enhances existence – love is existence.

Fact is a state of matter, Truth is a state of mind | Vande Vasudhaivam
Truth and facts are not the same, because facts alone don’t make the truth. Truth requires insight, truth requires wisdom. Facts can contribute to that insight and wisdom, but access to facts doesn’t necessarily entail access to wisdom. The best example I can think of is that of love. Love is truth, whereas lust is fact. Lust may be a part of love, but it’s not the whole of love. In fact, in many cases lust is not even part of the picture. The same goes for truth and facts. Fact is a state of matter, truth is a state of mind. Matter makes the mind – sure – but to fathom the matter behind mind in its fullest intricacies will take us millennia more.

Neurosonnet 2001 – Abhijit Naskar – Neurosonnets: The Pocket Book of Consciousness (First Drop)
Neurons giveth,
neurons taketh away.
By neurons we forge self,
with neurons we fade away.
Within neurons cosmos comes to life,
within neurons worlds come to end.
Neurons are building blocks of walls,
as well as the instrument of bridges.
There is not one but two cosmos,
one made by nature, another by neurons.
We are the makers of observable reality,
shaped by hopes and biases of our own.
Neurons are the birthplace of God,
Neurons produce all ghosts and goblins.
Life is a concoction of neurochemistry,
Boon and bane are both our own making.

Reality is Frequency (EM Sonnet) | Abhijit Naskar | Azad Earth Army: When The World Cries Blood
Light is a matter of frequency,
reality is a matter of (EM) waves.
I’m talking in a mathematical sense,
and not in a mumbo jumbo sort of way.
Light, there is always,
just not the kind we can see.
Just like our eyes register a limited
spectrum, mind too is blind to plenty.
Our eyes are not equipped to
perceive outside certain spectrum,
just like our mind is conditioned to
see nothing beyond self preservation.
With modern gadgets we can see the full
EM spectrum, beyond the limits of our senses.
Likewise, a well developed character
transcends the very barrier of time and space.

God Eyes (Sonnet) – Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets
Perception is not a measure of reality,
perception is a measure of distance –
from afar the sun is a dot,
from farther the milkyway is a dot,
from farther still the universe is a dot.
Likewise, from afar God is an entity,
from up close, God is a state of mind,
get closer still, and you are God.
Perception is like an oscillator circuit,
alter the value of the resistor or
capacitor, and you change the oscillation.
Likewise, truth changes based on the
resistance, ie. ignorance, and capacitance,
ie. awareness, of your vantage point.
