<\/span>Santhara is a Jain custom of performing voluntary mortification, which involves swearing an oath to physicians to stop eating until they starve to death. According to Jains, it is a way of purifying oneself from bad ‘karma’ and attaining ‘moksha’.<\/span><\/h2>\n

Controversy has also arisen in the Jain community over the capture of Santhara.<\/p>
