Video TikTok @.dr.intobesa.2 “The Mon afterlife is essentially centered on ancestor spirits and intertwined with Buddhism, as seen in blessings or dedications to the deceased, which often pray for attainment of “Nirvana နိဗ္ဗာန်”. Thus, Mon death customs are linked with Buddhist principles. The Mon refer to a funeral house, or a house (containing) a corpse, as “Hoi Kom Ma Than သ္ၚိကမ္မဌာန်” meaning “Kammatthana House” (House of Meditation). Attending a funeral is, therefore, an act of kammatthana—contemplating and examining the corpse. Good Death: The deceased is elderly, has passed away at an appropriate age, has suffered illness for some period, and the descendants have had the opportunity to care for and nurse them. They pass away peacefully surrounded by descendants who lead prayers of remembrance of the Buddha’s virtues, the Dhamma, and the Sangha, departing peacefully at home. The funeral can be managed inside the deceased’s home, accompanied by festive celebrations to send the soul to a good realm. Bad Death: Even if the person is elderly and previously ill, if an old person is sick at home alone and dies without anyone witnessing it, or if descendants have cared for them throughout but lose sight of them for just a brief moment and the patient passes away unseen, it is considered a “bad death.” For such a bad death, the descendants are punished according to Mon tradition: they must dismantle the house and dedicate it to the monastery as a penalty for the descendants’ failure to watch over them. Other forms of “bad death” include infants, young children, those dying from accidents, suicide, lightning strikes, or severe diseases. For those who die a bad death, the corpse must be immediately placed in a cemetery for at least one year before being taken out for cremation without any merit-making rituals performed. A corpse that dies a "good death" inside the house is not yet placed in a coffin, but rests on a bamboo bed called “Jong Nae Hse ဇံၚ်ဇၞး” meaning “Victory Bed”, signifying victory and escape from all realms of woe (apaya). It consists of eight layers of bamboo poles stacked to form a structure, with a bamboo-slat floor, six pillars, and decorated with colored cloth. The ceiling is draped with white cloth, and thirty-two flowers are hung around the ceiling, corresponding to the thirty-two parts of the body. Above the abdomen of the corpse hangs a betel nut cutter. A single oil lamp is lit above the head of the deceased, alongside the “Nae Perng Ha Mao” or spirit basket, which contains clothing, a comb, a mirror, scented water/perfume, and various small personal items of the deceased. At the feet of the corpse, a three-legged stove is set up with a lit fire and a pot of rice cooking to be served on a plate for the deceased. The bed for the corpse and these ritual components all embody meanings and numbers referring to Buddhist principles—such as the Four Noble Truths, the Five Spiritual Faculties (Indriya), the Six Principles of Cordiality (Saraniya Dhamma), and the Seven Virtues of a Good Man (Sappurisa Dhamma)—allowing the living to contemplate the principles of Dhamma and the ordinary nature of life. While the corpse remains in the house, if the descendants are well-to-do, a traditional Mon musical ensemble (piphat) may play to soothe the atmosphere. Food for guests attending the funeral is served right at the foot of the corpse. Each person sits close to the corpse’s bed without any aversion, viewing the deceased as their grandparents or relatives, knowing that one day everyone will lie in that same position. Setting up the corpse at home involves no invitation of monks to chant; instead, only a literate person reads tales or Jatakas to those keeping vigil by the corpse. When the time comes, the corpse is taken to the cemetery, monks are invited to chant for the departing soul, and the cremation is performed. ​ #MonPeople #Mon #MonTradition” memiliki 1.134 tayangan, 9 suka, 1 komentar, 0 kali dibagikan dalam metrik publik yang dicatat indeks ini.
