Baba Ram Singh's freeing himself from 'this worldly life' by preferring to die up-front than live life seeing misery inflicted by rulers is being seen as a message 'to free ourselves from the fear of death' by his followers and admirers.
Many sane people see suicide as a sacrificial act, believing that life is given for empathetic living and other's sufferings can move to sacrificing life.
Here is a serious five-line poem on the incident.
Singhra's humble Sikh priest Baba Ram Singh
Moved by ordeal of farmers, rulers not heeding
He found life was no more worth living
Amid oppressor ruler 'n immense suffering
He left temporal world which he found deluding
