It could be suicide, but if real, physical pain were involved, it could simply be something to do with the dosage of painkillers he might have needed—accidental overdose, overstress of heart/liver/other organs by the painkillers, etc.. Or if it were emotional stress, that can bring on any number of conditions, too.
Quite frankly, I’m hoping that it’s “one of the other”, because I’m under the impression that the suicide of a spiritual leader can wreak havoc on those he served.
