Caskets. Peace and Quiet

 Because death is momentous, miraculous, and mysterious

 Because the cycle of nature help us grieve and heal
 Because our bodies are full of life- giving potential
 We propose a new option for laying our loved ones to rest
          http://www.urbandeathproject.org/

 Option presently favored by this author is cremation and strewing. Cremation with it's emission output is hopefully countered acted by the nutrients from the ash that's strewn to earth, and needing no maintainance or natural resources might level out the pros and cons. Waiting hopefully for the Urban Death Project to get it in and on time.
   
                                        I dread not my death
                                             but my demise.
Thanks to the green burial movements a range of new caskets and burial needs are come to borne.



 

  
 
   

Natural burial in the Netherlands

A natural burial does not inhibit the decomposition but allows the body to recycle naturally.



...when we finally know we are dying, and all other sentient beings are dying with us, we start to have a burning, almost heartbreaking sense of the fragility and preciousness of each moment and each being, and from this can grow a deep, clear, limitless compassion for all beings. - Sogval Rinpoche.

 Here above are a couple of cemetaries in the Netherlands offering the natural method. And on the very top is Fungi, neither plant nor animal, and here is one more,

Decomposition is when organic matter is broken down to it's natural element.

Here is a new sort of mushroom,

embroidered into the Infinity Burial Suit which does not use harsh/toxic chemicals, pollute the environment , or waste natural resources. The Infinity Mushrooms remediate body toxins and help break down the body. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Life After Death, To Grow Or Go.

 a ripple stir I not, an echo make I not, life is done, death is here            

 Dying, death and funerals are not often spoken of. Subsequently neither is the fact that conventional burials are resource intensive and pollutes. Resource intensive in its use of materials such as wood and metal for caskets and clearings for plots and tombstones. Destructive in its methods of cemetery maintenance and use of lawn chemicals. Natural burials were common place till the appearance of our contemporary funeral industry, propagating expensive and evasive methods. Reducing carbon emissions, conserving natural resources and preserving habitat. Are we conceited? Do we merit everlasting? Here are some options, some ecologically respectful and others a little less, on life after death.

 Want to be a tree then read the article below explaining the cycle of life in all its glory.

 Bio cremation, even with it's use of alkali is considered more environmentally friendly than conventional methods. With the help of alkali and high temperatures, the speed of natural decomposition is profoundly accelerated. The resulting liquid solution is then directed back into the water system, which  calls for some concern.
       
 Choose to turn into part of a reef, this is how you may manifest, watch the video.

A little less visually spectacular is freeze drying, also called promession, where the corpse is frozen, dipped in liquid nitrogen and exposed to vibration. Liquid nitrogen?

Capsula Mundi is similar to the biodegradeable urns, with tree seed, sans cremation.

Because carbon is one of the key elements in cremated human remains and the technology to turn carbon into gems is available, ash or hair can be transformed into LifeGems..

 

 

Space buffs can choose a Memorial Spaceflight. Yes, into space. A portion of the cremated ash is sealed in a container and launched into the orbit.

Care to be reanimated in the future? Then cryogenic freezing, also known as cryopreservation, and cryoconservation, is the way. No guarantees but who knows?!

 

 

 

                             

                                                                               

 

 

My funeral arrangement. Plan to die.

A request after death. The search.

 

 As every breath takes me closer to death, there is need for arrangements to be made. Only one burial method can be chosen. Grim! Inspired by www.urbandeathproject.org here are some facts:


Fresh - Bloat - Active decay - Advanced decay - Dry remains

Humans have, with great reverence for forever been burying their loved ones naturally.

The Tana Toraja from Indonesia bury their deceased in niches carved in rock.
