legalwealth: i cant comment on Indian nature because there are different types of Indians of different races and tribes and there are mixed-race Indians (45%). i think you are talking about bollywood. that is maybe because their directors tell them to do so. lol |

[quote author=charlsecy4]The truth is that I prefer burning of bodies to burial. Graves mean a waste of land. I love it the Indian way.[/quote me too |

i dont like graves because sometimes diseased bodies, after moulding and liquiying, can contaminate underground water sources by leaching and cause a major epidemic. |

ATMC: this is an unattached act of love! But could be an abomination in someplace. Hey, but what about d air pollution it's likely to cause...? Save d living by burying d dead! 2 solutions. plant more trees. Hindus and Buddhists are supposed to be kind to nature since they rever it so they must preserve forests and plant trees as religious obligation. infactt here is one Hindu sect, the Bishnoi whos entire religious duties revolve around protecting nature. the trees take up CO2 (carbon dioxide). apart from humans, elephants are also accorded the honour of a full-fledged cremation with prayers, in India. In Japan and TAiwan, relatives sometimes keep a few bones at home for memories i think. China on the other hand has done something clever. their cremation is done in electric crematoriums so there is no pollution. the electric burner converts the body to ash. the Indians also are taking up this idea. in Hong Kong, they use town gas. this is called enhancing religion with science. all that Paganism is about since they dont go by any book. |
