Is Mercy Killing (Euthanasia) right way to end person's long lasting suffering?

Questioner: When a person is suffering from a chronic illness for which there is no cure, it does not seem right to prolong their suffering. What is wrong with helping them end their suffering?

Mercy Killing

Dadashri: No one has a right to do that, whatsoever. We have a right to treat them and take care of them, but not to kill them.

Questioner: Where is the benefit for us in prolonging their suffering?

Dadashri: What is the benefit in killing, then? When you kill a suffering man, you will lose your birthright to be born as a human again. It goes against the principles of humanity.
