Jaipur: Superstition and blind faith can prove to be fatal. A family of five people in Sawai Madhopur district of Rajasthan consumed poison and died in the belief that they would meet god.

The family of a photographer Kanchan Singh residing in Gangapur city consumed cyanide laced laddoos on Thursday. Singh also made a video of the entire incident and was even seen telling his family how he tried to meet Lord Shiva in heaven but failed. The family members who died include Singh's wife, three children and his engineer brother.

Hilarious and disturbing at the same time. Somewhat like the "Andher Nagri Chaupat Raja" story. Stupidity seems to have no boundaries.

He made a video, so it can be assumed he was literate. So, how did a literate man even thought about it? I read a few weeks back about a family who lost their child because they turned to prayers instead of talking the child to doctor!

There was a similar incident of a mass suicide guided by some leader. I forgot what it was called, but there are images of it as well. They poisoned themselves with cyanide and forced their children to do so as well. There was an audio recording of the incident as well. I'll post the link when I'm on my PC.

Edit: found it, jonestown massacre.

Religion and crazy people are not a very good combination.

I disagree on this...
committing suicide due to those reasons (Love,Exams) is objectionable but we don't have any idea how much pressure is on the mind of people who end their life due to these...

and we are just hating and shouting for those 5 people coz we dont have any relation with them...

Atleast, these 5 died for themselves to meet GOD.
The worst is when "People sacrifice others (especially children) for the sake of meeting GODS/lost TREASUREs with the word of a moronic saint..
