First, commemoration and faith
Funeral is a kind of respect and memory for the deceased, especially the death of a respected elder. It will be more solemn and formal to follow clan etiquette or local customs. Some ceremonies are also the inheritance of an ancient culture, which may have no practical significance, but they are also a kind of commemoration and belief.
Second, the deceased is great.
People attending the funeral should put the deceased first in everything, and respect him no matter what his relationship was before his death. You can't judge the dead and talk about right and wrong before you die. This can effectively prevent suffocation, and it is not good to be teased by the dead. If the people attending the funeral are timid, don't look at the body when it says goodbye, it is easy to be frightened and cause bad consequences.
Third, the embodiment of filial piety.
Nowadays, the pace of life is fast, and many people will not return to work in the city for several years. It is inevitable that the old man did not show filial piety when he was alive. He loathed to give up the people he loved and took care of them to make up for his regrets. However, I feel that the regret and debt for the death of the old man is not as good as visiting him often when he was alive, so as not to let money drown you and neglect his beloved parents and deceased relatives. While the old people are still alive, simply sitting with them for a while with a bowl of rice and a basin of foot washing water is the greatest comfort to the old people.
Although it is complicated for rural people to attend funerals, the moral is nothing more than expressing respect and nostalgia for the deceased. During the funeral, there were many customs that we young people didn't know. These customs have been passed down for thousands of years. We should get to know them better and know how to commemorate our loved ones.
