Acharya Prashant explains that insensitivity toward the vulnerable and the poor arises from a fundamental lack of love for life and consciousness. He highlights that human animalism is most evident in the widespread slaughter of animals, which people accept as normal while claiming to be civilized. He argues that without self-knowledge, human intellect remains a slave to animal instincts, leading to sophisticated methods of killing and a lack of compassion for those who are debilitated. On the topic of terminal illness, he differentiates between the duty of the caretaker and the patient. He asserts that while a caretaker must strive to preserve life out of love, the individual has the right to choose their own departure if their life no longer holds purpose or becomes a drain on others. He emphasizes that this choice must be made with a calm and sound mind, rather than out of desperation or despondency. Acharya Prashant advocates for the right to a dignified death as a fundamental human right, linking it to the right to a dignified life. He maintains that since consciousness is characterized by choice, death should be a conscious decision rather than a random event. As medical science continues to extend the length of life, he believes it becomes increasingly important for individuals to have the autonomy to end their lives honorably when they can no longer fulfill their life's purpose.
