God is the Prison

What if the first prison was belief—and God its warden? Before you learned to speak, you were taught to obey. Before you could wonder, you were handed answers. God Is the Prison is a bold and poetic exploration of how religion is installed into the human psyche—not as choice, but as inheritance. Zakir Hossain joins a long tradition of radical truth-tellers—from Nietzsche, who declared God dead, to Marx, who named religion the opiate of the masses. But where others argued through reason, Hossain writes with fire and rhythm. This is not a dry critique. It's a lyrical jailbreak. Drawing from the spirit of mystics like Lao Tzu and Buddha, and the rebel clarity of Krishnamurti and Osho, this book weaves fierce insight with poetic vibration. It is a spoken performance on the page—meant not just to be read, but recited. Not just understood, but felt. Inside, you'll find — A deep psychological exploration of how belief is implanted before consent A poetic dismantling of moral fear, guilt, and identity shaped by dogma A call to a sacred life beyond doctrine—founded in awareness, not obedience Reflections and practices to help reclaim your spiritual sovereignty This book does not ask you to adopt a new belief. It dares you to let go of the old one. If you were born into fear and called it faith—this is your invitation to wake. If you have ever wondered who you would be without the story they gave you—this is where you begin. This is not just a book. It is a mirror, a match, and a door.
