Cremation Cremation is considered less noble than stupa burial and is reserved for high monks and aristocrats. The corpse is seated on a stack of wood and straw and burned. The ashes of the sainted monks are added to tsatsas and thus preserved. Tsatsas are clay impressions of holy objects, images of deities or sacred symbols. Cremation is not confined to nobles but is also used for commoners in the southeast of Tibet where trees are abundant. The ashes of commoners are scattered on the top of a mountain or into the river.
