Abhijit Naskar
“We cannot establish proper, healthy human integration, without first decolonizing the world.”
Abhijit Naskar, Nazmahal: Palace of Grace

Abhijit Naskar
“Empathy originated in Mother Africa, naturalism originated in Latin America, divine love originated in Arabia, equilibrium originated in China, integration originated in India. Pluralism is not a polite idealism, pluralism is civilizational emergency.”
Abhijit Naskar, With Love From A Blue Rock
