A torch of thin twigs was handed to Shastri's eldest son, 32-year-old Hari Krishnan. According to custom, he walked three times around his father's body, then put the flame to the pyre. Priests poured on ghee and incense. Within seconds, the flames erupted, illuminating the wisp of white under the logs. Soon all was ashes...
