Abstract
The Hindu thought, with the principle of Nirvana, is an encouragement to fully accept the encroachment of death on life, and life on death, which Lacan studied in Ådipus at Colonus. We recall the case of the Papin sisters, and its literary echoes, showing that the uprising against death merits consideration in a wider perspective. Likewise, we can recall the regrettable tradition in psychiatric asylums of burying patients in nameless tombs.
