Answer:While "sky burial" is practiced in Tibet due to the lack of firewood for funeral pyres, cremation is is more common way of disposing of bodies.

Answer:

The Buddhist -(Hinyan/Mahayan) follow the Hindu practice of funeral pyre cremation as it is an off shoot of Hinduism.

The sky burial is practiced by the parsees in 'the tower of silence'.

It is only the poor or those who have no resources, either bury or leave the corpse to be consumed by birds.
