Why can’t the coffin touch the ground during a funeral?

》In ancient times, when someone died and was buried, there were always many people carrying the coffin. Especially for emperors, there might be more than a hundred people carrying the coffin. Undoubtedly, this is a kind of respect for the deceased. Another reason is that the number of people carrying the coffin represents the person's status and identity during his lifetime, but this is not the main reason.
In addition, there is another saying: when the coffin touches the ground, the soul falls to the ground. People who have seen burials may have noticed that before the coffin is taken away for funeral, there is something padding underneath it and it is not placed directly on the ground. If on the day of the funeral, the people carrying the coffin are tired and need to take a rest, they must put something under the coffin before lowering it. Generally, you can't rest for too long, and it's best to carry it to the cemetery without stopping!
》In short, the coffin must not fall to the ground before it reaches the cemetery. If it does, it will represent bad luck.
