Death in Asia: from India to Mongolia

In a sense, the idea of an afterlife can be a great source of comfort to those whose death is imminent, as well as to their loved ones. If such an afterlife does exist, then there is no reason to avoid or fear death. Moreover, if we believe that another life awaits us, then we would believe that we are only separated from our loved ones temporarily before being reunited with them later on.
