Tongue is a very important organ of our mouth.We undergo 2 actions with the help of tongue :1)talk, 2)taste.
To win this important organ,we should be conscious so that 1)we should not talk anything which is not related with krsna, 2)we should not taste anything which is not krsna-prosad.Then only our tongue as well as mouth would be properly used and those organs would be purified.
Common people generally violate those 2 principles in every moment.they never talk krsna-tatwa and never take krsna-prosad. so their mouths become so impure that after death fire is put on their face to make it pure.And , naturally,after putting fire on their face the whole body is burnt.
But in case of Vaisnaba Acharyas, they follow the 2 principls so strickly that it need not necessary at all to put fire on their face to make it pure.
the bodies of great vaishnava acharyas are already pure. so their bodies are not burned.this is what i have heard .bodies for humans are burnt because it starts decaying so it is burnt but for acharyas its not true.

So Acharyas are buried.

all previous acharyas were sannyasis and it is vedic custom to bury sannyasis.
