Can I Be Buried

Featured Replies

Can I be buried on my Wifes land when I die? legal marriage.

Bhuddists use cremation. Can't remember the name of the structure, they look like mini stuppas, but some install their ashes on the land, and place the ashes in there.

Fool em all and die, let them sort your remains out lol

If you trust them to bury you deep enough so you do not become dog poo.

Do you have a fire phobia ?

I would dig the hole myself to be sure. That way you could decorate it yourself, make some little rooms, stone walls, hang some murals etc.

They bury people near the village I live in. But I am not sure if you can use a different piece of land than what they use.

Sure. Would next week be soon enough? I'm waiting right now for bullets for my revolver.whistling.gif

Do your mean placing the body in the ground, instead of the ashes?

Chinese graveyards come to mind, lots of them around Thailand, so burial is possible, but on your wife`s land??

According to the wife ..YES, she intends to bury me in the garden, later rather than sooner I hope.

 

There is a foreigners graveyard in Chiangmai but I do not know if you can be buried anywhere.

I dont want to be cremated for the simple reason of wasting gas/pollution or whatever they use, dig a hole and drop me in, even better just leave me out on top of the hill to decompose, worms dogs anything can eat me, failing that bury me in the ground, am not bothered how deep or shallow.

I dont know why the question appeared about "Wifes land" being as foreigners cant own land what else should I call it?

That is what I am saying.....I posted the way the editor worked. Board fault now the mods should see what I mean.

The always tell you to test again and it is hard to recreate. This is what happened. Sometimes though you should use the right tool. Shift and scrolling the mouse wheel should make it more readable :)

If it doesn't work out with the earth interment, you might find some more or less suitable alternatives here:

Great thanks, I opt for the sky burial, very sensible where space is permitting and when the Thai authorities tell me I cant Ill tell them its a Buddhist ritual.

Crocodiles are an option. They usually burry their victim prior to eating. There are several crocodile farms in Thailand.

I bet they dig holes and play fetch too.
