Sagari Santhara means a santhara/ sallekhana practiced with support or with some bodily assistance while maintaining the vow of gradual, peaceful fasting at the end of life.

In simple words:

• Santhara / Sallekhana = voluntary spiritual preparation for death through detachment, fasting, and purification.
• Sagari = “with support” or “with care/assistance.”

So, Sagari Santhara refers to a person who is undertaking santhara but is not fully independent physically and may need help in sitting, lying down, moving, or basic care, while still observing the vow with inner detachment.

It is important to understand that in Jain Dharma:

• the main essence is vairagya and samyak bhav,
• not just the external body condition,
• and it should be done only with proper spiritual guidance and pure intention.

If you want, I can also explain the difference between santhara, sallekhana, and samadhi maran in Jain terms.
