“Sonnet of Martial Arts

The secret to Martial Arts,
Is not style but training.
Pick any form that appeals to you,
And train regularly without failing.
Practice a hundred moves five times,
It is of no use whatsoever.
But practice one move every day,
And it'll be your lifetime protector.
But before all that ask yourself,
Why do you wanna be a martial artist?
Is it to nourish an able mind and body,
Or to be yet another fitness narcissist?
Trash all your arrogance before training.
A martial artist is to be gentle and caring.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Gente Mente Adelante: Prejudice Conquered is World Conquered

“Be Unrealistic (The Sonnet)

Be unrealistic and work for a world,
That the society considers nonsense.
Once upon a time taming fire was unreal,
Then arose a bunch of brave sentience.
Today's madness is tomorrow's sanity,
If we’re mad enough to stand solo on guard.
Today's sacrifice is tomorrow's civilization,
If we can give all without hoping reward.
If only one person dies for the cause,
A hundred people realize their humanity.
I may die today in the line of duty,
But the struggle continues through eternity.
So let us be brave and go beyond reality.
Let us be accountable and do the necessary.”
