“Tamil:
செத்தவன் தலை கிழக்கே இருந்தால் என்ன மேற்கே இருந்தால் என்ன?”
“English Translation:
What matters it whether the head of a corpse be towards the east, or west?Most Hindus, and some Native Christians even, are very particular about the position in which they lie down to sleep. The head should be towards the south. The north is the region of Yama. The west is avoided because the person so lying down may not rise again.”,
