Blind faith Quote by Abhijit Naskar
““I am the Fire of Yazd (Sonnet 2992-2993) I am the Fire of Yazd, I won't be extinguished by warring apes. I am the Glaciers of Kailash, I won't be tainted by smallmindedness. I am the full Moon over Mecca, I won't be colonized by empires of insects. I am the Sound of Sema over Konya, I won't be silenced by noisy nationalists. My current comes from spinning particles, my compass points to where no map can lead - I won't fit inside insect colonies with compost for brain and bloodlust for divinity. I don't need to believe in distant heavens, oceans of sacred are bubbling in my marrow. I don't wait for the universe to speak, I walk, and the universe gains voice. Kainat is I, "I" is Kainat, what power have cretins got, to censor my culturelust! Be it the will of the whirling corpuscles, they could pen in a thousand languages, across thousands of cultures, wielding hundreds of disciplines - earth metrics are made for the monkeys by the monkeys, I am the barometer of civilization.””
