Quote Left Somewhere in the bible it say Jesus hair was like lamb's wool, I say. Well, say Shug, if he came to any of these churches we talking bout he'd have to have it conked before anybody paid him any attention. The last thing niggers want to think about they God is that his hair kinky. Quote Right
Quote Left Suffering is by no means a privilege, a sign of nobility, a reminder of God. Suffering is a fierce, bestial thing, commonplace, uncalled for, natural as air. It is intangible; no one can grasp it or fight against it; it dwells in time -- is the same thing as time; if it comes in fits and starts, that is only so as to leave the sufferer more defenseless during the moments that follow, those long moments when one relives the last bout of torture and waits for the next.

Quote Left Immanuel Kant was a real pissant Who was very rarely stable Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar Who could think you under the table David Hume could out consume Schopenhauer and Hegel And Wittgenstein was a beery swine Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya 'Bout the raising of the wrist Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed John Stuart Mill, of his own free will On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill Plato they say, could stick it away Half a crate of whiskey every day Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle Hobbes was fond of his dram And Rene' Descartes was a drunken fart 'I drink, therefore I am' Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed A lovely little thinker But a bugger when he's pissed Quote Right

Quote Left Time is a process, but the medium of our time is *karma* (action/deeds) that we must perform. What we do during that time is destiny in the eyes of Lord Shani. Do your duty, do not worry about the results, "Destiny does not worry about the result, it worries about the opportunity." **Jrtanmb Aghori** **Jagdish Bajantri** **28 August 2026** Quote Right
Quote Left I ran a poem of mine through AI just for analysis, not to change or improve anything -- the opinion was frightening. Better than any person I have encountered, as if this thing was inside my head. The next generation really does have something to worry about. We are dinosaurs my friends -- hope our bones will retain truth enough to inspire when we are gone, to be really read as they are dug up and carefully dusted, by facsimiles of living souls. Quote Right

Quote Left With me poetry is about subduing one's conditioned mental reflexes, and allowing purer inert forces to take control of the stylus. In short, poetry should be about transcending the physical into realms of the metaphysical. The heart of great writing is spiritual and not commercial. One must take the "I" out of a work as much as creatively possible. Quote Right
Quote Left If you want to call yourself a Poet, don’t let anyone speak on your behalf - speak in own poetic voice. Don’t let anybody else speak about your abuse, expériences or healing. You not only give away your poetic license, you give away your power to feel completely. Any trauma will be diluted in this way & your cycles of repressed emotion will remain repressed in fragments. Worse, it will be coloured by someone else calling themselves collaborators. This is a sophisticated form of power usurping. Quote Right

Quote Left “Be very careful of not projecting unwillingness to move into Heartspace onto humanity. Humanity only reflects our own individual actions & intentions. If we are unwilling to usurp Ego’s dominance, so will humanity remain in war and fear mentality. Likewise do not blame humanity for war imperatives, as all individuals are part of humanity. It’s never about ‘them’. Point all fingers inwards & backwards, whilst retaining sovereignty.” ©GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right

Quote Left Paddles of innocence most pristine, sail through crucible blaze. And the glowing soot embellishes the trail. May what, the innocence never losses it's grace. When souls hop thru the stars, how are they bothered about the scars!!! Quote Right

Quote Left “With Poets, as with any other artist, there exists a fine line between vanity and personal insecurity. These two characteristics are bedfellows & arise out of egoic insecurity about our own authenticity & individuality. If one wants to be a natural poet and not an artificial one, we have to embrace all our imperfections as they exist, in our state of evolution at any given time.” GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right
Quote Left When I say the word 'trolls' I don't mean just the people in public who chuck bricks at windows. Also talking about the ones who do it when you turn around. They have a pencil sharpened that says 'empathetic oath' - it becomes a shiv if you catch them throwing rocks. Turns out sticks and stones absolutely will hurt you, if they're lies about you told to everyone else and they are ignorant enough to believe it. That fades, along with your responsibilities. Liberation through betrayal. Quote Right
