Quote
No Rest (The Sonnet)There is no rest,Till the last drop of tear is wiped out.There is no leisure,Till the voiceless can speak aloud.There is no relaxing,Till the last empty stomach is fed.There is no sleep,Till all droopy spines are made straight.There is no joy,Till the last grey life is colored.There is no comfort,Till the last anxious soul is empowered.The struggle isn't over till the fallen rise.Security later, first let us be civilized.

Sonnet of IdentityTell me O Mississippi,What is my name?For I lost my sense of self,In line of service without gain.Dear mountains of Blue Ridge,Where did I come from?I fathom not the worldly titles,I deny narrowness as the norm.Character makes the person,Not pedigree and tradition.If I can lift even five lives,That’ll be my highest salvation.So forget that I asked about my identity.Service is my culture and my nationality.

Quote
I am here to build an army of self-sacrificing humanitarians across space and time, to march unafraid in the course of equality, inclusion and ascension, fortified with accountability, reason and acceptance. So my question to you is - are you that army? If you are, then chisel this in your brain with the indelible ink of determination - your gospel is goodness, your religion is service, your church is society.

I was a good for nothing vagabond roaming the streets of Calcutta. If I have done so much with no resources to speak of, how much will you do! Wake up my friend, the ailing world awaits.

Selflessness and sanity,Let these flow through your veins.Offer up your nerves and bones,As the world’s unity lanes.
