I really admire Bhagat Singh !! What a kind of person he was !! He was in jail for 130 days on fast against the britishers that too without even taking a sip of water. They tried a lot to break his confidence, even went to the so called third degree of torture, but all in vain. For them it was as if they were just digging on a barren land expecting  a kind of fruit out of a seed that never grows.The character, the mettle he was made up of was strange. I dont understand how can a person be so strong mentally that the physical limits just cannot "limit" him. Does this mean Strength is more related to mental endurance than physical muscle build up ? What if a person is physically well built up but afraid of reacting to a situation in a bold way ? Someone said it right ... its not that we have to be strong to fight hard, but yes we need to have that intention to fight hard... Bhagat Singh was that great !! But my mind just keeps asking me questions "How...", how can he be so strong, didnt he not think of risking his life, was he not afraid of pain, were there no butterflies in his stomach when he was fasting for 130 days !! ??

I felt very bad when one of my friend referred Bhagat Singh as a terrorist !! Yes I do agree that he was little hot headed but I do remember that he had himself surrendered before the police. A terrorist cannot be that courageous. Its easy to die than to live with all the pains like Bhagat Singh.
I feel that somewhere deep within Bhagat Singh was a follower of Non Violence, but yes his approach was different than Mahatma Gandhi. Let me make one thing clear that I rever Bhagat Singh not because he was hot headed or was like a revolutionist, but just because he had die hard determination and a die hard atttitude to uproot the british imperialism through non violence.

If he was a senseless hot headed person, he wont have taken to fasting. He would have made plans of escaping from the prison and striking red on british targets killing their soldiers. But No, he didnt do like that. He went through all the tortures that they imposed on him and had only one thought in his mind "Vande Mataram".

I salute to such a hero. Hope India can see many such heroes who are not involved in petty issues or benefits, who can look beyond and rise for the upliftment of society. The world needs a change but yes before that I realize I need to change myself !!
