No dogma. No masters. Only the burning truth of the heart and the fight against Zulum.
They ask me for my religion, and I show them my scars from fighting injustice. They ask for my prayer rug, and I show them the soil of Ghoshpur.
I am Baba Ghoshpuri. I do not bind myself to the stone walls of dogma. I believe in Haq (Truth) and Ishq (Divine Love). To love God is to love His creation, and to love His creation is to dismantle the systems that starve, oppress, and divide them.
Anarchism is my politics. Sufism is my soul.
Love is not passive. Love is a fire that burns away the ego and the structures of control. It is a revolutionary act.
Truth is not found in the sermons of the comfortable. Haq is the naked reality found in the struggle of the oppressed. We strip away the robes of hypocrisy to reveal the truth: that the Divine resides in justice, not in power.
No gods, no masters, only the Beloved. We refuse to kneel before kings, politicians, or bosses. To be a servant of the Divine is to be free from the authority of men. We tear down hierarchies to build a community of equals.
We stand in undying solidarity with the resistance. From the river to the sea, the land will be free.
"The liberation of the soul is incomplete without the liberation of the land."
We honor the martyrs of the July Revolution. The student-led uprising that broke the chains of fascism in Bangladesh.
"The blood of the youth is the ink of our new history."
God is beautiful and loves beauty. We find the divine in the frames of cinema, the ink of books, and the source code of reality.
Reading: Camus, Marx, Rumi, Ibn Arabi, Kropotkin.
"Read to riot."
Watching: Tarkovsky, Abbas Kiarostami, Zahir Raihan, Akira Kurosawa.
"Truth at 24 frames per second."
Hacking: The Matrix of social constructs. Understanding the algorithms of the ego.
"Debug the self. Compile the Truth."
We are everywhere, but physically rooted in the soil.
