I guess that the essential difference between Euthanasia and PAS is that - In Euthanasia, it is mercy killing....of someone who is in a medical situation where on the one hand death is imminent and pain is unbearable. In PAS, the person is wanting to end his/her life irrespective of the medical situation - happens for people who think they have lived all that life has to offer. In olden days, sadhus (sages) used to take samadhi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam%C4%81dhi). Isnt that akin to suicide or self-induced death ? Private Reply to Vijay Nair (new win) |
