What is death?
Burial is also called coffin, wood and wood, which was called big burial in ancient times. It means moving the body into the coffin. The time of burial varies from place to place, from three days to seven days. Some people die the day after death, and they should choose a date when they die. Generally speaking, it is appropriate to die on the yellow calendar, which means that this day is suitable for funeral. Most people are buried once after death, especially those famous aristocrats, and it is especially taboo to move the body many times.
At the time of burial, the son of the deceased will carry the body into the coffin. In Qinxian County in the southeast of Shanxi Province, it is important to wrap the head of the deceased with red cloth, then his eldest son holds his head, and four or six other people lift the body and leave the house with their feet first. Outside the house, blankets are used to shade the sun or hold umbrellas, and floating mountains and other places are called the sky.
Matters needing attention in funeral service:
1, the shield shall avoid even numbers and materials.
In China, since ancient times, it has been said that old people will feel at ease when they see the shroud. However, the elderly need to wear odd shroud before entering the coffin, such as 1, 3, 5 pieces, and even shroud pieces are forbidden. The shroud material should not be "satin" and animal fur, but "silk". The homonym "thick" will benefit future generations.
Don't be afraid of tears and animals at the funeral.
Funeral is the middle ceremony of funeral. Although customs vary from place to place, the most taboo is that relatives cry and animals are close to the dead. These are all symbols of disrespect for the deceased, making it impossible to leave peacefully. The dead are uneasy, the living are uneasy, and the funeral can't be completed smoothly.
