Throughout centuries the doctors' purpose in life has been to cure suffering, how can they be expected to do otherwise, even if it's done for a good cause. The issue has been misinterpreted by some people. They seem to be of the opinion that practicing euthanasia would turn nursing homes into places of fear and elderly people in residencial home are afraid that they will be a candidate. For whatever motive it may be done, all civilisations, all religions have regarded this as morally wrong.
History Human beings have suffered from diseases since they first appeared on Earth. Because of that medicines history is as old as human beings, meaning about 2.5 million years. First medicine was mainly based on superstition and guesswork, because people knew very little about humans body. Plants were very much used, because they were easy to get and they could treat very well. Still the origin of healing dates back to the birth of first civilisations. About 3000 B.C. the Egyptians began making some important process in medicine. The Egyptian god of healing Imhotep was actually one of the first physician of the world. At 2500 B.C. Egyptian physicians started to specialize. Some of them specialized in internal diseases, some of them treated the diseases of eyes and teeth. Also Egyptians produced first medical textbooks. Chinese developed a medical practice, which is based on balance between two life forces yin and yang
increasingly controversial position. In 1999, when the European Council, in the wake of the historic decision on the EU's eastward expansion, also decided to grant Turkey candidate-membership status, "9/11" had yet to happen. The attacks dramatically changed the social and political climate and awoke dormant feelings of deep unease. Subsequently, much of the discourse on relations between Western and Muslim states was cast in the mould of the "clash of civilisations", to use the phrase coined by Samuel Huntington. Ethnic violence became more quickly associated with Islam and visible communities of religious Muslims more quickly labeled as dangerous fundamentalists (Zürcher, E.J., Linden, H., 2004). It is not only in the member states, but also in Turkey itself, that public and political manifestations of Islam raise controversy. Evidence for this can be found in the countless "headscarf incidents" in Turkey, as well as in the periodic interventions by

kind of good ecclesiastic music, both in the Orient and Occident, releases a feeling of joy in man because such music, through its vibrations, is awakening the Kundalini power in the spinal column.1 The ethical and spiritual value of music is not an arbitrary attribution but its very foundation. If this value has sometimes ceased to be perceived by us, it is because our musical art has been removed from its basis, has betrayed its role, has ceased to be what music has always been for the great civilisations of Asia: the first among the sciences and the first among the arts. 2 In India, it is believed that music aids the spiritual progress of man. This music is essentially impersonal for it reflects emotions and experience that are deeper, wider and older than either emotion or wisdom of any single individual. Teachings of Indian contemporary Avatar (Pure Incarnation of God) poetry are, in my opinion, valid to the same extent in music.
