Mind is My Mecca (Sonnet) – Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets


Wanna touch God?
Touch a life in pain.
Person becomes holy by
helping another without gain.

The world needs missionaries of love,
missionaries of reason,
not mercenaries of organized religion.
out to harvest convert vegetation.

I was born of dust, I live as flame,
for I choose to be human, not a dead name.
Not lords and ladies, not dukes and dames,
mind stands beacon stripped of cages lame.

Human is the one who asks no one to kneel;
go, walk the earth not to evangelize, but heal.
To be holy is to carry a candle, not sermon;
mind is my mecca, soul is kindness in motion.
