Cremation is consider a desecration of the body. For the God who created man will raise everyone up at the Day of his Judgment. Don't make it harder for God at the day of his raising him back to life for final judgment. Yes, Buddha will be raise up at the Day of God's Judgment. For this reason a body should not be burn unless it was caught in a fire.
