: I am doing a report and am having a lot of trouble finding information on the traditions and customs that the Hindu religion uses for death and burials. Could you help me please??

Response:

You should search under the topic “Hindu Samskaras.” Major public libraries should have material under this topic. The internet bookstore Amazon.com is also a good source for this kind of information. You may also visit a local Hindu temple and find out what books they have on this subject. Look up in your telephone directory any of the following organizations in your area and contact them for assistance:

Vedanta Society
Chinmaya Mission
Vishwa Hindu Parishad

Hope this helps you,

Bansi Pandit
