Acharya Prashant says:\n“If you wouldn’t call this foeticide, then what would you call it? When an unborn child is killed in the womb, you consider it wrong—you call it a sin, a crime. But what do you call the way we are killing ourselves from within? Not allowing the self to manifest is suicide.”\n

New Delhi, JNN. Author and Vedanta expert Acharya Prashant says that a flower blooming and then falling is fine; it's a beautiful phenomenon. But what if the bud itself is crushed? And if the bud cooperates with it, agrees? "Yes, crush me." It knows full well that the life it's living, the steps it's taking, will crush it. But what if it still takes that step?
Acharya Prashant says, "Wouldn't you call this foeticide? If an unborn child is killed in the womb, it's considered bad, a sin, a crime. But what would we call killing ourselves? According to the Acharya, not allowing the soul to manifest is the true suicide. Not allowing the soul to express itself is suicide. So, aren't we all guilty of suicide? Wouldn't this be called a 'suicidal life'?"
