Funeral and Burial Rituals or Customs
It's funny, well, not haha funny but my mom called me the other day to talk about life insurance and her policy because she was changing some banking etc. She mentioned AGAIN (for the umteenth time) what she wants done with herself when she dies. It got me thinking that there is so many rituals and burial traditions we have here and all over the world and thought it might make for an interesting discussion.
Grim, I am aware, but interesting.
In Indonesia, the body of a loved one can stay with them for months. They also get to wear the good shorts!
Tombs, graves, religious services......discuss here if you need a break from the banning talk thread.
Do you feel modern western funerals are becoming obsolete? Meaning all the pomp, the big grave sites etc as now days your ashes can be planted with a tree to not take up space.
