Norbu, I've never been to Tibet nor anywhere near it, but isn't it mainly rocky mountain? Is there soil deep enough anywhere to bury all those who die during a year, or even enough loose small stone or rock to build a cairn? Or enough wood to cremate all those who die in a year? It occurs to me that perhaps the use of buzzards is a solution to a problem that is otherwise difficult, at least, to solve. But you are there, you would know, and I'm just guessing.

This ritual is still practiced in Tibetan in this very days, I als used to join this ritual two times but the first is frightening but the last one is more sad than to afraid!
this ritual is more sacred than and ordinary death ritual!~
Perhaps more Culture and Religion is conbind in this ritual!~
I also one time used to take pictures about this but a pity that pictures are not taken by digital commera.
by the way, the musics are touching, I am sure that movie is very great one!
