What Exactly Is A Hindu Funeral?
Cremation is the norm in Hindu death rituals, but the body remains in the family’s home until it is moved to the cremation location.
A Hindu funeral may consist of three parts:
A wake/funeral will be held at the family’s home.
A cremation service (“mukhagni”)
A “shraddha” ritual
The actual funeral takes place in the home, though due to its short duration, the event could be considered a wake by Western standards. After the body has been removed from the home, the cremation ceremony takes place at the crematory. A third Hindu funeral ceremony (shraddha) may also take place about 10 days after the death.
Both men and women have equal rights in the Vedas, which means that the liturgical process can be performed by the deceased's family members, sons and daughters, parents, siblings, and so on. If no one has a family member, then this best work can be done by anyone.
The head should be pointing north, and the feet should be pointing south. This is known as Dakshinabhimukh.
After the Agni Sankar rites, you can prepare normal meal at home, according to Vedic tradition.
There is no similar structure in the Vedas.
Nowhere in the Vedas is there any reference of such a system. It is a widespread superstition.
According to Hinduism, Antyesti Sanskar (Last Rites) is the last sanskar of a human being. There is no sanskar or ritual left for any human being after this. In all religions, a dead body must be disposed of. Arya Samaj accomplishes this by burning the deceased body on a wood fire and offering a generous amount of Ghee and Havan Samgri. For this Antyesti Sanskar, the process is carried out in the manner of a Yagya, with the chanting of selected Vedic Mantras.
