Jhator — Tibetan Sky Burial

The documented Tibetan Buddhist funerary practice (over 1,000 years documented continuous tradition) of offering the documented body of the deceased to documented Himalayan vultures on documented designated charnel-ground platforms — performed by documented rogyapa (body-breaker) specialists who documented dismember and prepare the body so that it is documented fully consumed by birds; the documented practice is documented grounded in documented Vajrayana Buddhist teaching on documented impermanence and documented compassion-as-final-gift, and remains the documented dominant funerary form across documented rural Tibet, documented Qinghai, documented Sichuan-Kham, and documented Mustang.
