Bali is predominantly Hindu, always has interesting
traditions known. One is the cremation ceremony, which is part of a series of
ceremonies Pitra Yadnya.
Cremation is generally defined as a cremation, but of the
origin of etymology it can be said quite right, because there is no tradition
of cremation through cremation. Cremation actually comes from the word meaning
Beya fees or supplies, said Beya is in the active voice (doing the work)

Meaning and Purpose
cremation ceremony (NGABEN)
In broad outline
cremation is to process the return Panca mahabhuta in this great nature and
deliver Atma (Spirit) to natural Pitra to decide their attachment to the
earthly body. By
ending love of Atma (spirit) with his world, he will be able to return to its
natural, that nature Pitra. Then
that becomes the goal is for the cremation ceremony ragha sarira (weight /
body) can quickly return to the origin, ie Panca Maha Bhuta in nature and can
be safely Atma can go into nature Pitra.
There is a book called "108 Pearl Veda" Publication 2001, precisely on page 107, there is express cited: Yajurveda: 40-15. In the hills it was mentioned that;
O people, your body is made by the five mahabhuta eventually became ashes and atmanya will get moksha.
Therefore, remember the name of the Lord, namely AUM, AUM remember the name of the Lord, and remember what you do.
So in scripture veda samhita, in this book of the Yajurveda there is explicit that every person (Hindu) dead body was to be made into ashes so atmanya achieve moksha. But if the direct cremation ceremony could reach heaven or moksha? If we think it looks like it is not necessarily. Can be seen in the above quote is from the Yajurveda in the last sentence. "Remember the deeds" of course, when we are dead we will be accountable for our actions during life. Is it appropriate or not to reach heaven or moksha.
