A collection of articles exploring Jain rituals that are performed when someone dies

I wrote a series of articles about death and Jain traditions when my grandfather passed away . This post lists all the articles that I wrote. Some of the posts share opinions that explain why, for example, Indians and East Africans began to cremate bodies whilst the other opinion focuses on the Jain perspective.
