does any culture celebrate death over dyeing ?

Answer 1

Well, sorta...hard to explain...There is an Eastern philosophy that follows that death is as much a part of life as breathing. And that whether someone is here for 90 years or 90 seconds, it's all just a blink of an eye in terms of the universe. So when there is a death, the life of the person is celebrated - and the death is celebrated because the person is 'going through their transformation' from life to death. This philosophy follows the thought that there is NO difference between life and death. If you throw a stone into a pond, the life of the stone in air is over, and it's life as a stone in water begins. But the stone is still the same.

Easter is set by the first full moon after the vernal equinox. This is the one day in the year when day and night are roughly equal! It varies by more than a month over the years and so it simply cannot represent the date of anyone's death!!! It is in fact a combination of several pagan festivals most notably the spring festival. The name Easter comes from “Eastre” an Anglo-Saxon pagan goddess. Also the Norse goddess,Ostara who took her name from the Teutonic lunar goddess Eostre Even the Chinese have the festival of Ching Ming where flowers and sweets are put on their ancestors graves!! The egg and the rabbit are symbols of springtime and rebirth along with the custom of giving flowers etc!! The Venerable Bede, an early Christian writer pointed out that the Christian church absorbed Pagan practices when it found the population unwilling to give up the festivals. Thus a lot of what Christians now see as Christians practices are in fact pagan!!! Fun to watch the Christians worshiping a pagan festival though - makes it just like Christmas when they do the same thing!!!

Many cultures have or have had forms of ancestor worship or honoring their dead beyond the burial. In western culture, remembrances of fallen heroes is a form of this, for example, Memorial Day in America honors the fallen soldiers. I'd suggest looking into the Japanese, Mexican, and Chinese cultures as a starter.

For the "dyeing" aspect, Neanderthals "dyed" their dead with ocher or other pigments, not sure if this counts...
