While on vacation we stumbled upon this cremation ceremony taking place. It is my understanding this is their normal tradtion when someone dies. The body is kept at the home for a few days as they prepare and then they cremate the body in this manner. Once the body is ashes they take the ashes to the river and put them there. The body is then reincarnated... The angled mass in the picture is the actual body which has fallen from the platform... What was interesting is no one was crying... It is a happy occassion for them especially if it's an older person.
