QUOTE(silverhawk @ May 29 2023, 04:43 PM) Its not really a grave, the body and coffin gets absorbed back into the land and become nutrients for nature. So you're not wasting land, you're giving back to it. Can the land be used to plant trees or crops?

That's the whole idea behind it QUOTE(poweredbydiscuz @ May 29 2023, 04:48 PM) Seems like not available in Malaysia yet? Coz all the posts are about oversea news. I'm also not sure if available here, that's why I said "something like this". Just to get the idea out there to TS. I'm not sure who in Malaysia can do it

Not workable here due to few issues:- 1) you need an gazette / alienated land for this. Coz if you simple bury the body at any land, ppl may mistaken it as the attempt to destroy criminal evidence / mistaken the burial as the crime. 2) the left over from the corpse ( the bones ) abit annoying. If the land is use for the growing, the land need to be ploughed , when it is being ploughed, the skeletons may surface. No farmer willing to works on the lands with so many obstruction. The only way I see it possible maybe it will be something like Bukit Cina at Melaka. The whole area ancient Chinese tombs were covered by the tall growing rubber trees.

I remember something funny from nirvana or one of the other funeral parlours where they charged more for the atheist package compared to the Taoist or Buddhist package. Since I'm an atheist, I'll just take the cheapest one. Doesn't matter if it's Buddhist or Taoist.

QUOTE(codercoder @ May 29 2023, 08:34 AM) Ok thanks. I think it will be great if relatives can still come and pay respect . But no need any prayer or any ritual or any singing..so far I haven't attended any free thinker funeral service. Perhaps just go for no-frills basic package and ask for something that doesn't involve customary stuffs. Agree that it would be good for people to pay respect if possible, so a wake will still be good to have. If whoever you're planning this for is still around or able to speak - just check what his/ her preference on such matters. One of my relative actually said in advance that when he dies, just cremate and scatter his ash. Nothing else matters to him because he doesn't believe in life after death. When you're dead, you're just...... dead. QUOTE(ycs @ May 29 2023, 02:37 PM) i dont understand why wooden coffins here cost so much; Hahahaha they tell you it's made of this wood, that wood iinm. There's also the cost of ornaments and finishing etc. These things really triggers you to think whether its necessary to pay premium for something better, since it'll be burnt after several days anyway.
