Girl, 3, youngest to 'take' Santhara fast unto death
The New Indian Express Shivamogga
|May 03, 2025
A three-year terminally ill child in Indore became the youngest to 'embrace death' through the Jain practice of Santhara.
She passed away on March 21 minutes after the ceremony ended.
Santhara or Sallekhana is a voluntary practice of fast unto death, which is undertaken when the end is imminent. But since patient Viyana Jain was just three, she couldn't have taken the decision voluntarily. It was her parents Varsha and Piyush Jain, both techies, who took the call following advice from Jain guru Rajesh Muni Maharaj.
