What if the victim is a fire?

The deceased should be cremated and buried on the day of the fire.

Seven sevens after death

Refers to the number of days of mental cessation (17 refers to 7 days, 77 refers to 49 days)

It depends on the family's financial situation. People stop breathing when they die, ranging from 17 years old, 37 years old, 57 years old to 77 years old. In well-off families, the death of elders can last for 7749 days, and funerals can be held at any time after the death of difficult families. In recent years, people usually stop for three days, divided into primary and primary. Even if three hands die at night and three hands die at night, the funeral and burial are carried out at the same time. When the spirit stops, the "dutiful son" can't leave the spirit shed and stay awake day and night.

Burning seven is once every seven days from the death of the deceased, and it is called "the first seven", "the second seven", "the third seven", "the fourth seven", "the fifth seven", "the sixth seven" and "the last seven" for 49 days. Legend has it that people die for seven days a year, three years and seven whole years, so they have to go through "seven periods" and three years. There is another saying. It is said that the deceased will be interrogated every seven days within 49 days after his death, so the "seven periods" are also called "seven disasters".

March 7, May 7 and July 7 are generally more important. It is necessary to pay homage to the dead, burn paper money, and burn things used by those who have been burned to death.

Breaking seven is the last seven, that is, seven seven. According to the statement, after 7749 days of death, people will be completely isolated from the world, either walking or becoming wild, and there is no possibility of returning to the sun, which means "they will die completely." Breaking seven is the last step to complete the funeral ceremony. After the ceremony, we will say goodbye to the dead completely. Everyone can let go of their sad mood and return to normal life.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to express the memory of the deceased, but the memory should be limited, so it is divided into seven stages with seven days as a stage. After 49 days, I will remind you that it's time to recover from the sad mood, don't always immerse yourself in it, and live on.
