anyhooooo...my uncle was cremated on monday. went through his prayers buddhist/taoist style.
hey, im not prayign to their Gods. only helping my uncle's soul. so dun say im a pagan praying to other Gods.
it was facinating, the prayers for him. we had to sit with joss stick, kneel, stand, run around the altar, run around the fire (from the cars/house/money burnt for him.
i spent my whole saturday and sunday folding
"money"( made out of paper) for him. hope he's super rich whereever he is now.
we also folded lotus flowers for him. it takes abt 15 pieces of "blessed paper" to make one lotus.
guess what, for the departed soul to come back and visit his family, he need 6/12 lotuses! whoaaaaa.....we only managed to make 20 something. his wife, my aunty was busy making many, hoping he would visit them.
kinda creepy.
but its their culture! right? all i did was help.
they have SO many traditions/do's and don'ts
like, cannot bathe after th sunday night prayers.
wear the same tshirt on funeral day,
cannot look at the coffin when their closing/moving it,
people elder(by family rank) than my uncle cannot send him off to the crematorium,
only youngr ones (by family rank)can mourn,
eat roasted pork after they cremate! (this is true!)
etc.etc.
one chun thing was his Pepsi family. like abt 100 people from Permanis Company (pepsi) came for his funeral.even the President of Permanis came! and another repreentative from Indonesia! so nice of them!
and after our procession (the customary walking from the house) we all went to the crematorium by Pepsi Cars! haha...it was chun. whole row of Pepsi cars! hehehe
haha.thats all i can think abt to write abt the funeral.
i was sick since sunday. flu on sunday and sorethroat when i came back. i think its due to the whether and i also slept in an aircond room
without a blanket! hahah...couldn't complain. too mnay people were in the house that day. so my blanket for the day was my towel.
shivered at night. couldn't off aircond to, cos dunno here the remote control! in other room.
