In Indian culture, great importance was given to how a person who is dying should be treated. They said a person must die in the right space, in the right atmosphere, with the right kind of emotion and with the right kind of thought. When someone is dying, they said you are never supposed to say, ‘Aiyyo, Amma!’1 You are supposed to say ‘Rama’ or ‘Krishna’ or ‘Shiva’2 or something like that.
