中国是多民族国家,民族习俗不同,治葬方法各异,对死者遗体的处理办法就有十几种之多。目前,改革者们正在致力探索、研究殡葬改革问题,寻求利国利民之路。到底哪一种葬法最适合社会的发展?依笔者之管见,火化后立即把骨灰撒进大海为最佳,也应该是殡葬改革的最终目标。除了“遗体火化——骨灰撒海”之外的其他葬法,都是不理想不彻底的改革。 As a multi-ethnic country, China has different national customs and different methods of handling funeral. There are over a dozen of ways to deal with the remains of the deceased. At present, the reformers are working hard to explore and study the issue of funeral and interment and seek the benefit of the country and the people. In the end which kind of funeral is most suitable for the development of society? According to the author’s opinion, immediately cremated into the sea after cremation is the best, but also should be the ultimate goal of funeral reform. Except for the “funeral cremation - ashes”, other funerals are not ideal and incomplete reforms.
