We must fight against suicide.

Suicide means taking the life of the body before its term. A particular body has been granted to us to enjoy and suffer for a given period of time, all in accordance with our past self-interested activities (karma). However, by committing suicide, we take the life of our body before the date prescribed by God.

We will nevertheless have to take another body, and what's more, the lifespan in this last body will be longer. We cannot end suffering in this way.

The laws of nature are not to be taken lightly. Suicide never puts an end to suffering, for we will be forced to take another body in order to continue suffering.

Suicide is a sinful act because we did not create our material body. It is a gift from God through material nature, and we cannot therefore arbitrarily decide to end it ourselves. Otherwise, we risk suffering after death in a ghost body, an ethereal body rather than a dense matter body, because incarnation in a dense matter body will be denied us. This situation is very distressing, as the person who finds themselves in a ghost body must wander in an ethereal body, experiencing all the desires of normally incarnated souls, but lacking the ability to satisfy their desires through a dense matter body.

There are two types of bodies: the spiritual body and the material body.

To better understand what is meant by dense matter and ethereal material bodies, it is important to first recall the original nature of a living being and why they incarnate in a material body.

A living being is essentially a soul, of a purely spiritual nature. Originally, its true home is in the spiritual world. When he lives in the spiritual world, he enjoys a body with a purely spiritual form, which is his true spiritual form. This form is no different from his soul, whereas the form of our material body is a manifestation of the false ego, and is, in turn, completely different from our true self. The material body truly covers our soul. Our true form is therefore spiritual, original, and not only eternal, but also filled with knowledge and bliss.

The spiritual world is the true abode of living beings. They live happily there, and death is conspicuous by its absence. This world is called Vaikuntha, and in Sanskrit it means “the world without anxiety.” Everything there is effulgent and filled with consciousness and bliss. The dimension of Vaikuntha, the spiritual world, is inconceivable. The material world itself is of inconceivable dimensions, knowing that what we perceive in the cosmos is only a part of the closed galaxy in which we find ourselves, and that the latter is compared, in relation to other galaxies, to a mustard seed in a mustard bag. However, compared to Vaikuntha, the material world occupies only a tiny part of God's creation.
