question from Amogh Prabhu in continuation to the question regarding Sati doesn’t Sati by ending her life earlier than her allotted years enter into Bhupayoni answer no not at all because Sati is entirely different from suicide suicide is the cause of entering into a ghost body because in that situation a person without frustration at failure in material life thinks that death will be a release from the misery of life and that’s why the person destroys his body and in that case because the person has prematurely destroyed his body that person will not get a next gross body and will become a ghost in the case of a woman who goes Sati Sati is a time honored scripturally based religious ritual in which the woman recognizing that she is not the body that she is the soul that she will continue to exist beyond her bodily death and that she would like to go to the destination where her husband is gone gives up her body at the time of the death of her husband so due to the understanding and the desire for continuing to perform devotional service to the law and to perform dharma in the association of her husband when she leaves her body she is actually motivated not by frustration but by the desire for service and by the desire for dharma so because of this the frame of consciousness is entirely different and the motivation is substantially different because Lord Krishna tells that whatever is the state of consciousness in her at the moment of her death that is what we will attain so Sati is also called as to go with so the woman who goes Sati she goes with her husband to the next destination and the husband if he is going to auspicious destination the woman will go with him and there is no question of her getting a ghostly body because she is giving up her body not out of frustration like a person does when he commits suicide but out of the desire for service and the desire for continuing her dharma so she will get auspicious destination similar to the auspicious destination that her husband has got because of having done punya in his life
