: What is the meaning of the phrase "burning Platform"?

I would really like to see some context for this. There are many things burned on platforms, including human bodies (suttee), but it's impossible to ascribe a more definite meaning to the phrase than "a platform on which things are burned," unless Teewhy cares to give us something more to go on.
