In Hindu, a child is buried to the ground while an adult (deceased) is burnt or rather cremated. After the burning the dead body, the ashes are then poured back into the water, this is because the Asians believe in the existence of the having an immortal essence and the body and universe (which is five elements, which include: space, earth, water, fire, air) has something to do with transiting the soul of the deceased. In the Hindu religion, the body is believed to be buried within a day of death of the deceased. The ashes are poured into the nearest river or sea. And there is a mourning period which is done for 10-12 days.
Zoroastrianism culture believes in neither the burial of the deceased or burning of the body. They instead construct towers which have openings that allow the inflow of birds that feeding on carrion to come feed on them. This particular custom was the practice in a part of Asian, especially by the Iranian.
Islam’s believe in burying the body to the ground. The first bathe the body of the deceased using camphor and leaves of a tree known as Ziziphus lotus, then the body is unwrapped up with cotton with (white) and then their funeral prayers are offered while the body is then laid low into the grave.
