one humble emperor

Weekend hiking visited the emperor's tomb of old period at the top of Kyoto's mountain.Before he died,he ordered to his subordinate not to hold funeral ceremony.Instead he left his will to have his bone crushed and spread it around that mountain's top area.He was the only emperor in Japan to have it done so.Though there're some great persons who have done similarly,it's a wonder that no one else but the emperor himself being so humble in spite of his royal position.
