Suicide and the importance of spirituality
The problem of community suicide is one of the main, important and in addition to the topics most studied by different sciences. The concept of suicide almost everywhere has the same meaning. Suicide, what is? Suicide is the conscious resignation to life itself or in other words the deprivation of life.
The scientific term ‘suicide’ was first used by a seventeenth -century doctor and philosopher. Suicide is a very common phenomenon right now. Something similar to suicide can be observed in animals. Various sources of literature describe cases in which animals, when they have them in cages, do not accept food and die due to hunger.
This behavior of animals cannot be called conscious, so to speak, it is a consequence of the animal’s instinct. A person has a thought of which he is aware about suicide. Therefore, the problem of suicide is always important.
The awareness of a person who reason in the subject of suicide has certain influences for several factors of everyday life. The basis of the suicide problem is the apparent hopelessness.
Decide whether it is worth living or not life is to answer the fundamental question of philosophy. There are many personal reasons for suicides: a tragic love, contempt, bad grades, misunderstandings of others, resentment, pain, physical and spiritual suffering, black lines that it has in life.
But not everyone takes their lives. For suicide, as for a social phenomenon, it means a growth of loneliness and the dlor.), a loss of solidarity and social support, which, in turn, damages more and more to the person who suffers from it.
Who has the greatest risk of suffering it?
- People who abuse alcohol and drugs of any kind.
- People in stressful situations constantly.
- A man who has already made early suicide attempts;
- Teenagers with deviant behavior;
- People who were victims of violence.
Suicide is committed in many ways, specifically by hanging, strangulation, drowning, chemical poisoning, self-friendly, use of firearms.
Some people warn about suicide, and others do not. A person who committed suicide, therefore, makes some kind of challenge to family, society, God, etc. Each of us is capable of this. This is very clearly shown in Thornton Wilder’s novel, ‘King St. Louis Bridge ’, when the bridge falls and the people who cross it dies. In an attempt to understand what led everyone to this unfortunate bridge of self-destruction, Wilder reveals an important truth: ‘There is a land of the living and the land of the dead, and the bridge between them is love, the only way to thesalvation, the only meaning ‘. That is why the death of love causes the love of death. We must love our loved ones and think about what they will experience: pain for separation, strong feelings of guilt, shame, anger and self-accusation.
Currently, many suicide prevention programs have been developed. This is a school classroom, several media appearances on the value of life. I think there are lagoons in these prevention programs. The gaps in my opinion are the following:
- Prevention through the media is carried out from time to time;
- Few programs to improve the spirituality and inner culture of man;
- narrow issues of preventive measures.
I believe that for suicide prevention, measures are really necessary, which must include several programs to maintain, materials about the value of life, as well as materials about the love of loved ones, nature, homeland, music, music,Religion, family, etc. Crisis centers must be created in every corner of the country, where they can listen to it and help you find an exit to the apparent hopelessness, as well as the help lines. To solve the problem of suicide, there must be spiritual and cultural trends in society. In Russia, at this time, according to statistics, there is an increase in suicides, and reason, in my opinion, is the loss of moral well -being.
In life, we sometimes do not have time to listen to ourselves, we do not show sympathy for our neighbors, we do not observe traditions. But this is important, each of us must be responsible for what is happening in the family, in the team, in the country. Society and each of us is a socialization product with experience, traditions, customs, principles and values. Therefore, it is in our power to change the existing values pyramid.
If we talk about the perspectives of the rebirth of spirituality in our society, then, according to the Russian philosopher I. Ilyin, it is necessary to begin with the teaching of belief. This teaching is only possible in the soul that knows the true highest form of love, forgiveness and acceptance of others. ‘Through faith and love, everything else is understood and understood’. Through these categories, a person reaches inner freedom and consciousness, and therefore to a moral culture. Thanks to all this, a person, despite life failures, will not be able to decide on an act like committing suicide. Therefore, one of the important directions for suicide prevention is to increase spirituality and moral well -being.
