Euthanasia: The Life-Death Continuum – Sandhya Jain

Euthanasia: The Life-Death Continuum – Sandhya Jain: "

Some unsatisfactory aspects of the Supreme Court judgment derive from a tacit assumption that the worldly life is the summon bonum (highest good) of existence. There appears to be a bias towards Western materialism and its bizarre quest to prolong human life to the point of abolishing death. This derives from the belief that there is just one life, at the end of which the soul remains in limbo for aeons, till the Day of Judgment assigns it to eternal heaven or hell. – Sandhya Jain
