| - ☆ Is an old tradition which Tenjin really value. People down the mountain were transporting corpse up to the mountains while a flock of birds eat it. Allowing live forms to return to nature and the acts of those who use up their lives, offer their bodies to feed others." ☆ Like Sanzo said: “When people die, they are either buried or cremated similarly, the corpse would be devoured by the birds.

- Sky Burial is a location within Kyrat in Far Cry 4. It's located on the northern part of Kyrat, on the east half (controlled by Pagan's Fortress, Rajgad Gulag ).Besides a BZ19 , an RPG-7 , a medkit, heavy ammo and a crate, a Mask Of Yalung can be found there, so visiting it is necessary for the 100% score, however, due to its altitude it cannot be accessed via a Buzzer, it's only possible on foot (start from the south-west peek of the mountain) through climable ledges and grapples, or, after completing all of Shangri-La 's mission, you can visit the Ghale Homestead , inside you can find in the kitchen (left after you go through the door) a pipe, by interacting with it, Ajay will faint and wake to find himself in Sky Burial.
- Sky burial was a funeral rite in which a deceased person was put in an open cairn at high altitude, where birds would devour the corpse. It was practiced on Jelucan, a planet of the Outer Rim Territories. Captain Ronnadam, a member of the Galactic Empire's Security Bureau, regarded that practice as barbaric.
- Sky burial was once a common practice in Tibet, until it was outlawed in the 1960s by the Communist government. Today it is legal again, but is a very uncommon method of burial, except for in smaller mountain towns. Monks would chant mantras around a deceased person's body and burn juniper incense the day before the rogyapas, or body-breakers, would come in. The rogyapas' job was to disassemble the body. They are unusually calm, even happy and light-hearted as they carried out their task. Supposedly this makes the soul of the deceased pass on to the afterlife more smoothly.

They are unusually calm, even happy and light-hearted as they carried out their task. Supposedly this makes the soul of the deceased pass on to the afterlife more smoothly. After preparation, the body would be put on a stake in the mountains for the vultures to eat, sometimes while the family of the deceased watched. After the flesh was picked off of the bones, a rogyapa would crush the skeleton of the deceased and grind the bones with tsampa, leaving it for crows and hawks to eat. Why do they do this? Buddhism teaches generosity and compassion, and therefore, after death, it is only fair that your body, which you no longer possess, should be given to someone who needs it more - in this case, the vultures. Some eyewitnesses have claimed it is to bring the deceased's body closer to their soul in the afterlife. It may seem bizarre, even grotesque, to us in the Western world, but perhaps the Tibetan Buddhists are aware of something we are not. Perhaps it would be best to learn from them.
