Question

Why sati was also termed as ‘suicide’?​

Answer 1

Answer:

From voluntary to forced. According to ancient Hindu customs, sati symbolised closure to a marriage. It was a voluntary act in which, as a sign of being a dutiful wife, a woman followed her husband to the afterlife. It was, therefore, considered to be the greatest form of devotion of a wife towards her dead husband.
