Why Hindus burns the dead bodies (cremation) by Dr Zakir Naik & Sadhguru 

A great man once said. We don’t burn you because we don’t want to waste wood.

He only shared the pros of burial and cons of cremation so lets talk about cons of burial and pros of cremation with his exact described points and a few of mine as well. 1. When the body of a deceased ones is burned, yes there is infact pollution that releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide , nitrogen oxide etc, But in burial the embalming fluids used to preserve the tissues also results in soil pollution , can also pollute the ground water and is not healthy for decomposers in soil. 2. Yes a lot of woods is used to perform cremation which affects agriculture but like burial but dont forget that cofins are also made of wood, muslims dont use wood in burial that is a good thing but the land only gets fertile ,trees are never planted on it like have you ever seen a cemetery becoming a forest. 3. Antim sanskaar is a lengthy and costly process but burial is also not free the 15 sq ft peice pf land in muslim cemetary can cost around 15 k to 1 lakh depending on varoius factors, digging a grave 1000 , price of wood 4000 , bathing and dressing the body 3k-4k , scent, flowers rates of graveyards 5k and other expenses. It is not like you are just gonna dig a hole anywhere own you own for your lost one and gonna bury them and leave forever. 4. The peice of land where the deceased is buried can not be used for like 50-100 years as a human flesh takes 2-10 years to decompose and the bones of a human take even more time to decompose like it can take upto 100 years depending on various factors. And just tell me a thing have you ever seen a cemetary being used for any other purpose or have you ever seen a cemetary being turned into a park, no cause it a special place used for a sole and specific purpose that is burial. Now lest discuss other pros of cremation 1. It is reletively cheaper to cremate a body than to burial. With all customs and rituals performed the average cost of hindu cremation is around 1-5 lakh depending on factors ,whereas burial includes cost of cofin, cost of tomb stone, cost of land in cemetary and various other which are not cheap. 2. There is flexibilty in cremation, after the cremation of you loved ones you can bury the ashe, spread them in the desired field of the deceased one, keep the in an urn or like hindus can lay them in ganga. 3. A deceased who is embalmed using harsh chemicals can pollute soild and water sources. 4. Burial takes up scarce land , cremation does spreads pollution but new technology really starting to reduce the amount and impact. 5. Availability of land in cemetary is anothee issue. Cremation allows you to avoid the trouble of finding a plot. 6 . Many cases where a stray or wild animal can dig the deceased one and can feast on it. There are pros and cons of everything in this world but by showing that the you side is pretty and other side is uglier and downgrading something for your own good is not what i will call noble.

earth is more green without human.

This question should be asked to an anthropologist who will give a detailed answer.

Hair and fingernails may appear longer after death, but not because they are still growing. Instead, a persons fingernails and hair may appear longer because the skin around them has retracted, according to the Dermatology Clinic at UAMS.

Burning means , the soul will get new body except that burned.When you bury the body , the soul might get the same body.Please don't give explanation of pollution , woods, but its a ritual of hindu not being offencive.

This guru speech without proof.. only creed.

Noone can beat Sadhguru through words in this era.

Give solid reason human is made of soil and will demoposed and will become soil, we muslim believe that the soul come out the body and body can feel pain so burning is not an oppsion

When you see both of them, Sadhguru is just on a different cosmic scale. Infact it is a insult to a person like Sadhguru to be compared with this conversion ki dukan.

Chhutye where you get the burial ground… it occupy the space.

No land will become fertile with human body

Which disposal system will control the deadly viruses, bacteria of covid, corona , cancer ,aids etc.? The vultures die after consuming the bodies of Parsis , infected with aids, cancer etc ..

Have you ever seen him saying my religion is good and others are bad. He never takes any reference only says according to his knowledge and experience that he has got. If you go to his Ashram all religion symbols are engraved at wall. I respect only those who respect all religions so that we don't fight each other. If you follow him do the same I won't say don't do so. What can I get having abused your religion.

In islam the dead body posses more and more land after death thats why I luv my hinduism

Allah ko noise pollution ka pata nahi tha tab😂

Dry wood is used. Those are of dead trees

Lol when science goes with his religion he says scientific but when science say muhammad didn't split the moon they get angry 💀🤣.

Jakir naik didn't say about necrophilia

Pollution is a thing. Burning causes pollution simple as that

Don't act God! You both may be wise or extraordinary but only God will have the answer for the discussion. Not you both.

So from now onwards people can go n start growing trees in graveyard

Is the burning will be painful on the dead body if the dead body absolutely didn’t die on the first 14 days Also ppl who stood and walk may be they are still alive and he was in coma after heart attack? And fire was they real cause of death

ok so on the day of judgemen, if youve become part of the earth, what body is going to be taken up tio heaven then

Allah guide us all

Then .. there should be no shamshan ..

Treasures ... buried .. Garbage .. burnt.. Just open you're eyes It's against the nature to burn human ... So sad

Zakir Naik sir ❤🥰

No evidence no debate

Engraving the body is letting it to decompose. It's scientific and non terrible. I thank allah that i was born in a Muslim family otherwise I have to search for it. ALHAMDULILLAH😊

Hypocrisy destroyed

✝️✝️✝️Genesis :3: 19 By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return

People are agreeing to this dude lol .

You talk what ,??

Please dont compare that islam jocker with sadguru

Save yourself from cremation by your own people by reverting to Islam. In islam you got love from any Muslim like your brother.

Islam is best ❤❤dr zakir naik is best ❤

Non scientific answer sad guru

Guru say that human body is not fully dead so how can u burn that thn

Allah ko science pata ho 1:02 ti toh quran mein phekubaazi nahi karta😂

Very weak logics by guru he says we burn because we want to give relief to body early by burning to ashes ⚱️ oppps
