The burial process

1. Burial is the process of moving the coffin or urn from the funeral place to the cemetery and burying it at a certain time, which should not be earlier than sunrise and not later than sunset. Then the tomb is covered with a cap or the soil is covered to make a grave. The ceremony of moving the coffin is called a funeral procession. Before placing the urn in the cemetery, put the deceased's favorite small items in it. If there is a separate photo of the deceased, put it in the urn. If one of the spouses dies first, put small items that the other one often used in his or her lifetime in the urn. Red bamboo stone ornaments should be placed in men's urns, and purple ice silver ornaments should be placed in women's urns.
2. If it is a burial, the sequence is to place the nails, cut the coffin, rotate the coffin, open the spirit chamber, and say farewell to the guests. The "An Ding" ceremony must be performed by the descendants themselves. The eldest son bites off the descendants' nail. At this time, the ritualist or Taoist priest nails the four ends of the coffin while saying auspicious words, to symbolize the birth of a boy. This ceremony is now sometimes omitted or held in advance. Then comes the "cutting of the coffin", which involves cutting small pieces of wood from the coffin, nailing them together with the descendants, and placing them in the incense burner. When the mourning period is over, they are burned together in the hope of prosperity for the descendants. Then the coffin is rotated, and descendants circle the coffin to show their reluctance to let it go. After completion, the coffin bearers will move the coffin to the hearse, and then the descendants will follow the coffin out. After the coffin is opened, the funeral procession must stop halfway to "say goodbye to guests". The family members ask the relatives and friends from other families not to attend the funeral, and the funeral cars of the remaining relatives and friends will send the funeral to the cemetery.
3. Before the coffin is buried, mourning is performed to indicate that the deceased's face will not be seen from now on. Then the burial ceremony will be carried out. First, the local god and the geomancer will "release the cork" at the end of the coffin, that is, remove the wooden cork in order to make the body decay quickly. Then the local god will pull the rope to move the coffin to the grave. During the process, the geomancer will use a compass to determine the direction and adjust the position. After the rope is untied, the inscription banner (a flag with official position and name written on it) will be placed on the coffin. Afterwards, the filial son filled the grave with soil and put it in sackcloth, and shouted "Abba (mother), get up", indicating that he was burying his deceased relative personally and calling his soul.
