Throwers lead a Hindu funeral procession, throwing flowers onto the road, followed by a crowd of mourners. The ox-drawn cart carrying the body is also decorated with flowers, and behind this all is left a trail of flowers in the road. It makes me feel sentimental, its a beautiful and, even I must admit, moving sight. Also it fits well with my own personal desire to be burned on a pyre, so let this stand as a statement of my wishes! (I vaguely remember the UK government being forced to accept this form of dispatch for religious reasons)
[edit] as this could potentially be costly, I should qualify this with: only if my remaining funds cover this treatment for my remaining remains. Otherwise let whichever nation work out what to do!
