Rituals and Traditions that Help Us Heal - Funeral Basics
Burials
The decision for burial is often tied in with long standing tradition, religious beliefs or specific customs and rituals. In those cases, these conventional methods of honoring the deceased, add a deeper meaning to the celebration of life that other dispositions simply cannot.
A natural and peaceful setting, placement next to a spouse, a proper good-bye, and visitation of the gravestone for family and friends to grieve are among other reasons people choose burial for final disposition.
Have you ever struggled to find the words to say in a difficult time?
Burials allow for a public demonstration of how much the deceased means to them but also provides an opportunity to show support for those grieving the loss. This allows family and friends to be there when you need it the most and contributes in a meaningful way to the grieving process.
Although the public acknowledgement of a loss can be difficult, emotional, and certainly not something to look forward to, it is generally accepted as being a major and important step in the grieving process and ultimately coming to terms with the loss of a loved one.
Emotions are hard to describe and can be complicated as well as ever changing.
A burial along with a funeral or memorial service is often the final public act of love for the deceased. With this aspect as well, burial and funeral rites can provide comfort for what would otherwise be a very personal, difficult, and exhausting process.
