Sarcophagi burn at a cremation site during a mass cremation in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia, on August 1, 2014. More than 100 corpses were collectively cremated in the ceremony known as Ngaben Masal (Mass Cremation). Taking place every 4 years in Singakerta Village, it is one of the most important ceremonies for Balinese Hindu people. They believe that during the burnings the spirits of the deceased will be freed to reincarnate. (Photo by Agung Parameswara/Getty Images)
