“Perception of Reality
***
I keep things here and there
I watch the world; I am aware

When you have time, study it
My journey has a history, too

Pain from migration or loneliness of life:
Each tragedy has its effect.

Not everyone may realize the pain
Not everyone has a visionary view

Life is a glorious offer of those,
Who is always ready to sacrifice it?

I join the world, people with smiles
I leave my loneliness at home

“God Eyes (Sonnet)

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.”
― Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets: Naskar Art of Theology

Осознание того, что, возможно, в нашем восприятии есть пробелы, которые мы пока ещё не способны заполнить.”
