The point of spreading a dead persons ashes is to symbolize letting go of the person who died.
Spreading of a dead persons ashes is symbolic of the physical and emotional aspects of letting go of a person you love and it can also help people who are grieving better let go of the sorrow they have.
Whether you should keep a dead persons ashes or spread them out somewhere depends on your wishes or the persons wishes that was cremated.
Some people want to keep the dead persons ashes to keep them close to them and other people want to spread them out.
I personally think it's better to spread the ashes out somewhere or at least bury them somewhere instead of keeping the remains.
It is weird in my own opinion and others to keep an urn with cremated remains in your house.
My sister was cremated and my mom keeps her cremated ashes in an urn with her picture on it on the mantle in the living room and it is very unsettling for me to sit in that living room with that urn staring me in the face.
I really wish she would put the urn somewhere else and not in the living room.
When I die I'm gonna be cremated and I want my cremated remains to be spread out in the woods somewhere.
Other people want to have their ashes kept but others want it spread as it's an individual choice.
The human body does sometimes move during cremation but they do not sit up.
Bodies sometimes go into what is called a pugilistic stance due to the high heat of the cremation chamber which means the knees, elbows, and fists clench due to dehydration because of the extreme heat.
The pugilistic stance can make the body appear stiffer and shorter but it does not cause the body to sit up during cremation.
The body does not feel pain when being cremated.
Dead bodies cannot feel pain as the brain is shut down and cannot send signals to the body through nerves.
So once you're dead you cannot hear, see or feel any pain or have any emotions etc.
The body does not know anything about what is happening and does not feel any fear or pain when they get cremated.
The body does not feel pain during cremation.
When someone dies the person does not feel any pain or have any senses anymore as the brain has completely shut down and every organ has also shut down.
So the person being cremated will not know they are being put into the cremation oven and being cremated.
If the person feels pain then they are alive and not dead.
But if the person is indeed really dead then the person will not feel or experience any pain or discomfort from being cremated.
Cremation although it seems crude is actually a better option than burying a body and it's more environmentally friendly as well.
The body is burned up and the bones are ground up into powder which takes less space than a body being in the ground.
Also no coffin is needed and no concrete for burial vaults are needed either.
Cremation can cost thousands of dollars less than traditional burial of the body.
