1 " Mother Nature created God as a neurological anti-depressant sentiment, but Man tore that God apart into pieces and made citadels of differentiation out of them. "
― Abhijit Naskar , The Krishna Cancer
2 " In a society of thinking humanity, it should always be, humans first, and then Gods, Krishna or otherwise. "
3 " To all the women I say, don’t ask to be saved by anyone, “my brave baghinis” (tigresses). Remember, if you deem yourselves as sheeps, men will treat you as such, but if you deem yourselves as tigresses, then you are the ones who will shape humanity. "
4 " Brutality goes hand in hand with orthodoxy, be it Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, Atheistic or any other. "
5 " No text, being human creation, is free from flaws – it is the human mind that should be conscientious enough to accept their good elements and discard the bad ones. "
6 " Mark you, no Krishna can clear your eyes and make you look with a broader vision upon life in your march upward and onward, until the Self within you morphs into Krishna – until the Self morphs into Buddha – until the Self turns into Christ. "
7 " Awake, O brave one! Arise, O lion-heart! Be the messenger that spreads compassion. "
8 " In the ancient times, when ignorance was the default mode of thinking, Krishna may have proven to be a glorious figure to be adored and relied on in times of distress, but in the modern world of conscientious humans, no Krishna is higher than the Human Self. "
9 " Real teachers like Jesus, Buddha, Nanak, Rumi have much more to teach humanity, than the imaginary figure Krishna, concocted by an ancient Indian man named Vyasa. "
10 " The Krishna Consciousness has nothing to do with the protagonist Krishna of Mahabharata. However, here the term Krishna is only a symbolic representation of utter divinity in the psyche of the Hindus. The Krishna Consciousness is basically, a mental state of transcendence, which can similarly be called as “the Christ Consciousness” or “the Buddha Consciousness” or even “the Naskar Consciousness”. Buddha hailed it as Nirvana, while Christ, upon experiencing it, said to his pupils, “I and the Father are one.” Upon emerging from this extraordinary state of Absolute Oneness, the Self turns into Krishna – it turns into Christ – it turns into Buddha. "
11 " Abandon the ceremonies and become an Awakened Soul – a soul that sees no color but the color of joy – no religion but the religion of love – no language but the language of compassion. Become compassionate my friend – become brave my friend! That is true religion. There is nothing else. "
