“Pain is a crucial part of our reality; it awakens a person from a mental stupor. A person must never be afraid to discover where their pain originates, follow pain to where it emanates from, learn from its messages, and reject the mindless business and busyness of contemporary culture in order to fuel an artistic vision of the self.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

Robert M. Pirsig
“But the biggest clue seemed to be their expressions. They were hard to explain. Good-natured, friendly, easygoing...and uninvolved. They were like spectators. You had the feeling they had just wandered in there themselves and somebody had handed them a wrench. There was no identification with the job. No saying, "I am a mechanic." At 5 P.M. or whenever their eight hours were in, you knew they would cut it off and not have another thought about their work. They were already trying not to have any thoughts about their work on the job.”
Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values

Jacqueline Edgington
“When your mind is distracted with all these game machines, you become mindless. When you don’t think, your mind becomes blank. You don’t use your imagination anymore. You don’t plan and you stop looking forward. Television can do the same thing if you’re not careful. It can stop you from using your mind. When you stop using your mind, you chug along on the Mindless Express going nowhere. You forget to look at how beautiful the world is. Your energy flows where your attention goes and then drains away until nothing is left. The more you play with machines, the less you play in the world around you. Eventually, your world disappears because you’ve forgotten about it. You wake up one day and find it all gone. It’s too late. You’ve wasted your time on the Mindless Express. You lose your chance to make a difference in the world. Your story never gets told.”
Jacqueline Edgington, Happy Jack

Craig D. Lounsbrough
“It seems that the art of mindless repetition has become a rather well-refined art form these days.”
Craig D. Lounsbrough

Jacqueline Edgington
“As he punched a hole in each ticket, the conductor shared the fact that a young girl once spent a fortnight on the train before it came to a stop.
“What’s a fortnight?” asked Jack.
“Two weeks; you know, fourteen nights,” responded Petucan.
“Wow. That’s a long time to be sitting on a train. What did she find to do in a fortnight?” quizzed Jack.
“She found plenty to do to kill time. Eat up and enjoy the ride,” smiled the conductor”
Jacqueline Edgington, Happy Jack

Biases will fool you
into behaving most mindless.”

“I'm tired of trying to be important to the shallow,
I'm tired of trying to make sense to the senseless.
Adjusting to prehistoric habits of a dualistic world,
The mind loses touch with its magical magnificence.”

prejudice deemed consciousness,
all breath becomes futile air,
all heart is rendered pulseless.”

“Paralyzed Reality (The Sonnet)

Newspaper to smartphone,
rabbit r1 to apple vision pro,
social disconnection only
changes face, nothing more.

Nobody is busy enough
to need VR while walking.
People are meant to own tech,
Yet the opposite is happening.

Every tech has its place and purpose,
How many reminders are enough reminder!
First you buried your head in your phone,
Now you walk around as donkeys with blinker.

Companies are not to blame,
Real culprit is consumer idiocy.
In a world of unawareness,
VR and AR make paralyzed reality.”
Abhijit Naskar, Visvavatan: 100 Demilitarization Sonnets

Abhijit Naskar
“Mindfulness leads to selflessness, which unfolds as mindlessness is left behind.”
Abhijit Naskar, Visvavatan: 100 Demilitarization Sonnets

“Keep struggling, o brave soldier - keep struggling till politicians become an extinct species and politics an extinct profession. The mission is, not to replace old world mindlessness with new world mindlessness, but to put an end to all forms of brainless authoritarianism selected randomly on the basis of charisma and popularity by hysterical whim.”
Abhijit Naskar, Tum Dunya Tek Millet: Greatest Country on Earth is Earth

“Better broke than bent,
Better naive than narcissist.
Better mistaken than mindless,
Better broken than a cheat.”
