[edit] Needs cleanup.

This article is in dire need of a cleanup and attention from an expert. There ought to be sections on Jainism and Hinduism, as well as a much clearer introduction to Sallekhana in general. This is a potentially controversial topic & would greatly benefit from a neutral, clear article. Fdedio 09:39, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reliable sources for the term dharmic religions?

Where are the reliable sources that use the term dharmic religions in the context of this article? Dharmic religions is a now deleted obscure neologism and should not be used throughout Wikipedia. a good alternative is Indian religions. Andries 15:55, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I propose to use the alternative phrase Indian religions. The number of google scholar results for "Indian religions"+"Indian religion" is (45.600 + 84.200) while it is only (492+475) for "dharmic religions" +"dharmic religion".
