How many bother to find out how they are coping with the loss in the familyAnjuGandhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05067542271359917459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-49206996217458940552009-07-31T22:14:52.596+05:302009-07-31T22:14:52.596+05:30True JD :-)True JD :-)Insigniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09819054091062923489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-71766373594340940622009-07-30T23:22:28.176+05:302009-07-30T23:22:28.176+05:30death brings the family closer and once they do co...death brings the family closer and once they do come closer, they start thinking of life.. <br /><br />May you GM rest in peace..JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199899117800191369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-12274485726883543132009-07-30T22:42:14.837+05:302009-07-30T22:42:14.837+05:30Hi Shilpa,

But there are others who are extremes...all smiles.. that's sad. <br /><br />SG, <br /><br />Absurd that few people expect an invitation for a funeral. No one gets invited for it. Appalling!!<br /><br />AS,<br /><br />Yeah...happens<br /><br />Abhi,<br /><br />Human tendency absolutely. Humans have become numb and they have lost it!!<br /><br />Vivek, <br /><br />You are right. Its not appropriate to expect everyone who attend the funeral to be weeping or wailing. Behave dignified. That's the least. <br /><br />I belong to the community of Tam-Brahms. We don't even shed tears and women don't accompany the hearse for the final journey. Different practices, its all fine but all smiles and decked up as if attending a marriage is dismaying.Insigniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09819054091062923489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-70781494631858116132009-07-30T04:23:21.041+05:302009-07-30T04:23:21.041+05:30My condolences on the demise of your grandmother.
...My condolences on the demise of your grandmother.<br /><br />You are absolutely right that some guests do not behave properly. They think it is a social get-together. At the same time, everyone (except close relatives) need not be somber. Hindus believe in rebirth. Therefore, death is not a great calamity. It represents the destruction of the body and the release of the soul so that it can be united with the supreme God. In a strange way, it is a happy occasion.<br /><br />In Tamil Brahmin families, immediately after returning from the crematorium, the lunch/dinner will include payasam. They observe 12 days of mourning. The 13th day function is called “subasweeharam”. The lunch will be many courses including payasam, 2 different kinds of sweets, vada, appalam, sambar, rasam, etc.Viveknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-90298132208193525692009-07-29T21:44:01.115+05:302009-07-29T21:44:01.115+05:30May your grandmother rest in peace!May your grandmother rest in peace!ABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18040990686933827142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-939214907959009302009-07-29T21:43:43.626+05:302009-07-29T21:43:43.626+05:30well.. call it bad fortune or normal life, I have ...well.. call it bad fortune or normal life, I have been to some funerals lately.. and what I observed is that only those who are close to the deceased look sorry.. and those who are there just to attend as a formality behave very ordinarily...<br /><br />human tendency may be!ABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18040990686933827142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-51418561647575852182009-07-29T21:12:10.265+05:302009-07-29T21:12:10.265+05:30I know ..i have seen itI know ..i have seen itAnkita https://www.blogger.com/profile/08423815874935620837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-14645018302587078332009-07-29T21:00:50.403+05:302009-07-29T21:00:50.403+05:30Our heartfelt condolences on the passing away of y...Our heartfelt condolences on the passing away of your grandmother.<br /><br />In addition to what you said, there are some other inconsiderate behaviors also. For example: Funeral is the only time you should not expect an invitation to attend. However, some people do not go to funeral to pay respect to the departed soul because they were not “invited” to come the funeral. Disgusting.SGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05790347071764332430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050700084750309897.post-35748971240998742012009-07-29T19:55:43.347+05:302009-07-29T19:55:43.347+05:30well i do understand when someone close to the dec...well i do understand when someone close to the deceased cries of sorrow...but honestly there are some people who cry and yell too much, worse some ladies end up gossiping and b****ing about others when they are actually there to offer their respects.
