刍议现代化殡葬的殡葬仪式

Discussion on Rituals of Modern Funeral

现代殡葬应该以揭示生命的本质作为重要任务,殡葬仪式是这个任务的理想工具。现代殡葬仪式在传统与现代、希望与现实中寻求妥协和折中的努力被个体思潮和技术工具所颠覆,造成了自我分裂。根据现代殡葬仪式的症状和病因,结合仪式的基本理论和现代化社会的时代精神以确立殡葬仪式变革的理念。殡葬仪式行为方式应该随仪式的行为基础——殡葬活动发生变革,也应随着殡葬活动的现实基础——社会实践发生变革。仅具备单一情绪抚慰效能的殡葬仪式已不能担负起立体的、丰富的情感重量,殡葬仪式应该加载全面的人生智慧教育。殡葬仪式亟待重建。

Modern funeral should take revealing the essence of life as its important task,and funeral rituals are an ideal tool for this task.Modern funeral rituals seek compromise and compromise between tradition and modernity,hope and reality,which are subverted by personalized thoughts and technical tools,resulting in self division.According to the symptoms and causes of modern funeral rituals,combine with the basic theory of rituals and the spirit of the times of modern society,in order to establish the concept.The behavior mode of funeral rituals should change with the behavior basis of rituals--the funeral activity,and also change with the reality basis of funeral activities--social practice.Funeral rituals with only a single emotional comfort effect can no longer bear three-dimensional,rich emotional weight,and funeral rituals should be loaded with comprehensive life wisdom education.Funeral rituals are in dire need of reconstruction.
