“I obliterate myself pouring out life, beyond all known limits of literature, only to be blamed for my himalayan immensity, by the religious of hate and nationals of bigotry.”
Abhijit Naskar, Sonnets From The Mountaintop

Abhijit Naskar
“Every naskar material that exists outside the books, exists only to redirect you to the canon - the gifs, the voice recordings, the occasional merch, everything - don't confuse the window for the world.”
Abhijit Naskar

“The Naskar Scandal (Sonnet 2945)

Some have problem with my inclusivity,
some have problem with my vastness,
some have problem with my velocity,
some have problem with my polyglottery,
and some just have problem with my skin -
and finding no filth, they just cook it up.

I don't even consider most of your
tribal white giants as my equal,
and you think I'll be rattled
by the temper tantrums of a bunch
of underdeveloped neanderthals -

more power to you I say,
because more filth you cook,
more untouchable I become -
more accusations you invent,
more impossible I become -

and yet, I forgive you my child,
I forgive you, and I'm quite confident,
you too will evolve into human someday,
if not you, your descendants will.”

“Evolution of Naskar (Sonnet 2693-2694)

I didn't have internet while growing up, I used to save pocket money to buy nonfiction, and lots of dictionaries - I used to keep them sprawled open around me on the floor during homework,

and later when I published my first book, I leaned back into that same childhood habit, I remember spending months gathering notes from heaps of downloaded research publications.

After the first ten or so books, I wrote one called "In Search of Divinity", where the shift happened, the tone of that book was so radically different from my already published more academic-style work, which had already established me as a neuroscientist, that I considered publishing it under a pseudonym, to prevent it from jeopardizing my scholarly standing -

but that work felt like homecoming to my soul, so I chose to continue my legacy in that newly awakened tone, and then on, my reliance on secondhand research declined drastically, except for when I required occasional empirical data.

Science-heavy works are not necessarily truth-heavy works, just like scripture-heavy works are not necessarily divine-heavy works.

No risk, no discovery - no discovery, no humanity; had I stayed within the narrow confines of facts and figures, in fear of being shunned by academics, the human race would've never received the vast multicultural, multidisciplinary, multidimensional Naskar Canon.”
Abhijit Naskar, With Love From A Blue Rock

“How to Read and Publish Naskar
(Sonnet 3171-3173)

When you publish my works after me,
make sure the new covers are made by
human hands, preferably adapting from the
originals that I designed with my own hands -

don't dishonor my life's work
by using generative ai;

remember, the original Naskar covers
are an instrumental part of the canon,
not mere decorations.

Also, be careful with Naskar typos,
because what you presume as typo, might be
deliberately planted linguistic landmine -

sure you might find actual typos,
in fact I'm sure of it, but most of what
you'd consider typos with your monolingual,
monocultural brain, are Naskarian artifacts.

Then finally, there is the matter of editing,
and I decree: unless you're a Naskar yourself,
by which I mean, a multicultural, multilingual,
multidisciplinary being, without fanaticism,
without militant rationalism, as well as
without pseudoscientific supernaturalism,
you are unqualified to edit Naskar -

Naskar too is falsifiable, but not by tribal minds,
and I don't just mean religiously or culturally
tribal, I also mean intellectually tribal;

you may skip the first two or three years,
because as I've often remarked,
they were mostly borrowed research,
with occasional original Naskar,
but as for mid and late phase Naskar,
publish each text in its original entirety -

you may abridge if necessary, with caution,
but you must not try to edit Naskar -
a climber mustn't try to edit the Himalayas.”
Abhijit Naskar, Aşkoholic: Portrait of A Human
