    Default Last Arrangements

    For those of you who have made arrangements, or have already thought this through; what are your plans for your remains when you leave the mortal plane?

    Burial? Cremation? ...Mummification? Perhaps something less traditional?

    Just curious more than anything, especially if the method by which one is laid to rest holds any particular significance to you.

    I've requested cremation in my will. Don't plan on having any big service, but a wake sounds like fun.

    Mmm.. In that case, does cream have consciousness?

    Oh, Hell (or heaven) bring them on!

    Cremation all the way, and honoring the body for it's service is grand style.

    Well after waiting three days of this possible death of my body (as I may choose to come back) I wish to be taken to one of those tribal nation that use Ayahuasca .
    Have all my friends that could make it there and have some of that good juice so we could all chat on the other side...
    Would wish for half my body be buried and half ashed.

    Ayahuasca representing whole heartily for the spirit.
    The burial representation of earth and renewal.
    My ashes be sent into space as representation of stardust.

    I hope you are not coming to Israel or US for next round, They usually modify genetics of strawberries.

    I don't believe in an after-life so I honestly don't care what happens. You can make all the plans you like, but unless your children or friends carry it out you have no control over it! Funerals are for the living, and it's up to them as to how they want to remember you, after all it is their memories that will give you your immortality!

    You should consider again if your consciousnesses stay a little longer with your body.

    This is a funny one. I can't imagine anyone missing their own funereal, but that's contingent on having one.

    I think I'll just leave it up to the local authorities. They seem to believe that it belongs to them anyway.

    I plan on being busy elsewhere.
