Can we donate our organs after death? What is your opinion on this?

Question - Gurudev, can we donate our organs after death? What is your opinion on this?

Gurudev Sri Sri - Yes, after death we can donate the organs of our body. There is nothing wrong in it. People say, 'Oh, if you give your eye, you soul won't go to heaven', all this is not true. Didn’t Bedara Kannappa (a hunter who proves his extreme devotion to Lord Shiva by plucking out both of his eyes and donating them to Lord Shiva) donate his eyes? He donated them to Shiva when he was still alive. Dadhichi gave his spine to Indra. Similarly there is nothing wrong in donating the organs of our body for good cause. You don’t need to be concerned about it.

Eternal Infinite Bliss

सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः

सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः।

सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु

मा कश्चिद्दुःखभाग्भवेत।

ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः॥

May all sentient beings be at peace,

may no one suffer from illness,

May all see what is auspicious, may no one suffer.

Om peace, peace, peace.

सभी सुखी होवें,

सभी रोगमुक्त रहें,

सभी मंगलमय घटनाओं के साक्षी बनें

और किसी को भी दुःख का भागी न बनना पड़े।

ॐ शांति शांति शांति॥
