In The Great Gatsby, what does this mean: "The lawn started at the beach and ran toward the front door for a quarter of a mile,

Where is a cemetery LEAST likely to be found? A large Hindu village on a major river A small Christian farming village A city wi
enot [183]

The correct answer is - A large Hindu village on a major river.

The people that practice Hinduism are not having the same way of saying goodbye and expressing respect to the dead as in the other major religions. While most of the religions have it as a rule that the people should be buried in a cemetery, often with the presence and blessing of a priest, the Hindus are not like that. In the Hinduism the people that passed away are cremated. The cremation takes place on the biggest river in the area, with the river having a big religious symbolism. The leftovers from the body form the cremation are dispersed into the river which should take that persons soul into the other world.
