One of the most fucked up spiritual practices I've ever seen XD

apparently In traditional india, when they cremate the body, they listen for a distinct pop sound in the skull, they believe this shoots some frequency wave or someshit that sends the soul further to higher frequency realms. and if the pop isn't heard then the eldest son must take a stick and literally smash the top of the skull. And if this isn't done, then you can perform a ritual by smashing a coconut with strong intentions. (apparently this isn't necessary if you are fully realized, which only a few ever would be)

 

donno if that's legit or what, but somethings to think about. I don't think the ancient Vedic texts ever mention burying people when they die, and there would be a good reason for that I assume

We does that. When my grandmother died and she was in fire and skull didnt break i saw (not necessarily elder son) breaking it with a stick.
