Abhijit Naskar
“Abhijit The Useless (A Sonnet)

At school I didn't even know the term neuroscience,
Yet today I'm a symbol of neuroscience and psychology.
As a kid I never even dreamed of becoming a scientist,
I just wanted to observe the underpinnings of reality.

After high school I failed my medical entrance exam,
Yet to the world I am a vessel of ethics in medicine.
I chose CS Engineering instead but soon dropped out,
Yet today I am the epitome of responsible engineering.

Failure and success are eternally entangled,
Masses fear them while legends feast on failure.
I never felt the urge for academic validation,
Yet today I'm regularly cited in Springer.

I never studied science in the pursuit of grades,
I accidentally became a scientist by doing science.
Grades and degrees are shortcut to social validation,
But when you are a pioneer pushing the frontiers,
all mortal validation turns null and void.”
Abhijit Naskar, Vande Vasudhaivam: 100 Sonnets for Our Planetary Pueblo

Abhijit Naskar
“I am proud to say, I am the son of a laborer - first one to have education in my family - and the first multicultural scientist and poet in human history.”
Abhijit Naskar, Bulletproof Backbone: Injustice Not Allowed on My Watch
