The funeral ceremony is the final and most sacred rite of passage on the wheel of life as the body is returned to the elements and the soul is released. Funerals serve the same functions throughout the world: to dispose of the body, to ensure the safe passage of the soul and to comfort the living. The prayers, rituals, magical incantations and celebrations help to divest the soul of emotional attachment and empower it to continue its journey toward the light.
