Funerals are so funny

My friend said, "Funerals are so funny. My daughter and I went to one of those ceremonies, one month after, or chautha or something, and everyone was sitting in white saris, with their pallus over their heads, and they were playing these Sanskrit hymns, but the tunes were film songs! You know that song from Sangam with Raj Kapoor…? We both started giggling. I was sitting cross-legged on the floor, so I bent over and rested my arms on my knees, and hid my face so no one could see me laughing. And someone came up behind me and patted my shoulder and said, 'Don't cry, it's God's will.'"
