etalian posted:Senicide is currently practiced in Tamil Nadu, a state of India. The traditional practice of senicide by the family members is called Thalaikoothal. In this custom, the elderly person is given an extensive oil-bath early in the morning and subsequently made to drink glasses of tender coconut water which results in renal failure, high fever, fits, and death within a day or two. Hardcore Jains also believe that the old and infirm should be allowed to starve themselves to death. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sallekhana
