In this original work, the author aims to develop a synthetic perspective for enhancing the understanding of the roles that death and life-giving waters have in the constitution of society and cosmos in karmic traditions. This is achieved through a material culture study of death and funeral practices as cultural, ritual, and religious processes in parts of Nepal, Bangladesh, India, and the Indus Valley.
