Why I am an Atheist and Other Works by Bhagat Singh
4.0
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.
