Take the following as truth: The self-immolation of widows, known as sati a widow becomes sati, a  virtuous woman,  by climbing onto her husband's funeral pyre has disappeared, but the monkey-god Hanuman and elephant-headed Ganesh are still idolized, and nobody will dare to deny the sanctity of the cow and all her  milk, curd, butter, and dung, the last of which is used for fuel.
Then the following statement: "There was once a practice involving the self-immolation of widows." is true, false, or inconclusive?
Answer: True
