A poignant and beautiful essay with abundant humility. Singh was a reader of his time and a engaging author, I've come to discover. Still in mourning of how two of his books he wrote in prison never saw the light of day.

His views on this spoke just like the man he was. He could have given us the nation we needed and still need.

Reading about Bhagat Singh in history, watching films and documentaries on him was not in anyway parallel to having a slice of his own mind. This book contains of his own letters written to various people; close to him or people from authorities.
His first letter, 'Why I am an atheist', is what resonated with me the most. As he denies the existence of God, he is not arrogant, disrespectful or illogical. He is just extremely rational and logical and has supreme confidence in his own self; principles, abilities and knowledge.
Every letter he has written as a prisoner is a slap on the British face. Never has he ever mixed his language or become vague in his iteration. When he writes to his father, not to plead for mercy on behalf of his; it has the capacity to give you goosebumps thinking about the strength in his spine.
He's bold, emotional, knowledgeable and stubborn all at the same time.
Freedom fighters have always amazed me, made me bewilder about the conditioning of their minds, their goals and their resolution. Bhagat Singh stands tall ahead of the queue.

"One's reasoning may be mistaken and even fallacious. But there is a chance that he will be corrected because Reason is the guiding principle of his life. But belief, I should say blind belief is disastrous. It deprives a man of his understanding of power and makes him reactionary."

We all know the great freedom fighter, Bhagat Singh, by his revolutionary acts which shook up the British Raj but very few are aware of the thoughts behind making him a man who offered his life for Independence of our nation.

Why I am an atheist is an essay by Bhagat Singh written in Lahore Central Jail in reply to his religious friends who thought Bhagat Singh became an atheist because of his vanity. The clarity of thoughts he possessed at such an age of 22 is so remarkable. The reasoning he gave in the book with the support of logic reveals the practical philosopher inside him. Another thing which we realize from this book is his socialist convictions (which our dear education boards never took any effort to mention in school textbooks
