After death, bodies are turned with the head facing South to signal the yama-dhutas to come and lead the soul to Lord Yama.
Which is why Jñana Dakshinamurti Shiva sits in meditation facing South. He is the preceptor residing in unborn-undying awareness (jñana-chaitanyam) - marking "death" as just an idea in the mind of the deluded. So thank you for the compliment. I'll try and remind the jihadi-s that you are a KINO - a kafir in name only.
