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.
