In the Auroville Forest, a traditional funeral pyre was prepared with care by the Farewell team. Family was invited to decorate the pyre with flowers and incenses. The pyre was lit by his son Alex, daughter Tanja and great-nephew Rahul. Those in attendance sang mantras. When leaving, each person said a prayer to break the relationship with Inderjit’s earthly body and wish his soul a good voyage to the next life. This was a ceremony of great beauty and emotion. It was a deeply human experience knowing that since pre-history this was how our ancestors departed.
