AB  - “An  elderly  Hindu  in  a  British  hospital  was  found  lying  on  the  floor,  so,  thinking  that  he  had  fallen  out  of  bed,  the  nurses  placed  him  back.  Shortly  afterwards  he  was  found  on  the  floor  again.  He  could  not  speak  English  to  explain  that  he  thought  he  was  dying  and  wanted  to  die  on  the  floor  where  he  would  be  near  Mother  Earth,  so  that  his  soul  could  leave  more  freely  than  in  a  bed.  Like  many  Hindus,  he  had  a  clear  model  of  how  he  should  die,  yet  he  died  alone,  before  his  family  could  be  summoned  to  perform  the  final  rituals.”
