Cremation tower and bull figure in procession at Brahman's funeral

A nine roof tier cremation tower and large bull figure (seen from behind) approach each other in procession at a Brahman's funeral on July 23, 1986. It requires over 100 men to carry each figure to the cremation grounds. Spectators surround the procession on all sides to observe these beautiful creations before they are burned.
