End of year refleciton

From now on I have one hour to go through early India. It is very dirty and I see people crying. I walk to them to see what is happening and there are to people in white clothes walking around a dead body. They are talking whirred and put some oil on the body. I smells really bad up to the point where they put the oil on. Now they take the body to a river called Ganges and bath him in there. The man in white is still talking whirred stuff. After the bath they put him on wood and from that part on I did not want to look anymore. The wood is burning with the dead body on it. I can remember that I read a newspaper article in my life before I decided to travel to this place. It said that they are burning the body for recarnation. That means that they want that the dead body get reborn. The is even a wheel for the cycle of reborn and it is called samsara. This religion is called Hinduism. But when they die it is not their end. The people just work hard to get reborn good next life. This is just crazy. The people really think that he is going to life again. But now the dead man's family is not sad anymore. Maybe the guy worked hard and that would mean that he would be reborn as in a good life. Now they put hay over the almost finished burning man. I think this is just to make the fire bigger. The body is ash now. The people don't put out the fire although there is no body visible. I guess somewhere else a mother got birth to a baby and that is the man who just died. My time is over and I open my eyes again. The time did not change here in my old life and I am happy to be back.
