Kungase kubonakale kungenakucabangeka kodwa, njalo ngonyaka, izinkulungwane zezidumbu zomuntu ezishisayo zihamba zingalazi ngamalungu omndeni, abangane nabathandekayo. Ngokwe-athikili eyashicilelwe e- Chicago Tribune ngo-2010, kulinganiselwa ukuthi u-1% wazo zonke izigameko zokugcoba e-United States kubangele ukuhlala okungenakunqunywa okushisiwe . Ukuze kubonakale lokho, i-Cremation Association yaseNyakatho Melika (i-CANA) yaveza ukuthi ukufa kuka-998 500 eMelika kwakuzobandakanya ukushiswa.
Njengoba ucabanga ukuthi iphesenti yokushiswa okwenziwe okungahambi kahle minyaka yonke inembile, lokhu kusho ukuthi amasheya angaba ngu-10 000 asetshenziselwa ukushiswa komuntu, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ahlala emigodini noma izitsha zokushisa okwesikhashana, akakaze athole imindeni, abangane noma abathandayo ngo-2010 kuphela. (Ngokusobala, i-CANA idlulela phambili ekuhlolweni kwayo kwansuku zonke kwama-United States, ngakho-ke isibalo sangempela cishe sikhulu.)
Futhi le nkinga ayiyona eyahlukile e-United States. E-Australia, amathuna amathathu edolobheni lasePerth yedwa manje agcina amasethi angu-300 'omlotha' ongenakusho imindeni. Futhi e-United Kingdom, lapho abantu abangaba ngu-73.15% abafa ngo-2010 babandakanya ukushiswa (okungafani no-40.62% e-US ngalowo nyaka), abahlinzeki bamngcwabo baye babhekana nenkinga yemindeni ehluleka ukuqoqa izinsalela zeminyaka eminingi , namanye amafemu aqhubeka ephethe izinsalela zokushisa ezivela ngasekupheleni kwawo-1800.
Izizathu
Kunezizathu eziningi ezibangela inkinga ekhulayo yezinsalela ezingavunyelwe, kepha mhlawumbe omkhulu phakathi kwazo kungumnotho. Ngaphandle kokuba umngcwabo noma umngcwabo ukhokhelwa imali , imindeni ethile ayikwazi ukukhokhela lo mthethosivivinywa noma inqume ukuthi ayifuni ukukhokha ngesizathu esithile. Naphezu kwemizamo ephindaphindiwe yomngcwabo, ukucwatshwa kanye nokuhlinzekwa kokushisa ukuxhumana nale miindeni, amalungiselelo amaningi aphelelwa yisikhathi futhi okuwukuphela kokukhetha ukuqasha i-ejensi yokuqoqa.
Ngenxa yobuthakathaka bokukhathalela oshonile nokukhathazeka ngemibono engafanele, abahlinzeki abaningi bayathandwa ukuba bafinyelele kulo mlinganiso ngakho-ke umcibisholo oshiswayo ohambayo uhamba ungenakusho.
Ukungqubuzana komndeni kwangaphakathi kungenye isizathu ukuthi imindeni ingathathi izinsalela ezishisayo . Ngezinye izikhathi izihlobo ezilandelayo zizizwa zihlukaniswe nomuntu oshonile ngenxa yezinkinga ezingenakunyakaziswa ngaphambili empilweni ezidala ukunganakwa ekugcineni kwesimo sakhe sokugcina esilungisiwe ngemuva kokufa. Kwezinye izimo, imindeni iphikisana ngokuthi ubani okufanele athole izinsalela, noma kaningi, kufanele kwenziwe kanjani nabo ngoba ngokuvamile abantu abahluleka ukwenza izifiso zabo zokugcina baziwa, okwenza abayosinda bahlukane ngalokho "uMama" noma "ubaba" ngabe befuna . Okokugcina, futhi ngokudabukisayo, abanye abantu bafa ngaphandle kokusinda okhathalelayo ngokwanele ukwamukela umthwalo wokuthola umhlalaphansi wakhe.
Njengoba kungaqondakali njengoba kuzwakala, ukungazi okulula kungabuye kubhekisele kumuntu ongakutholi izinsalela zokushisa . Abanye abantu abazi okwanele ngenqubo yokugcoba futhi bakholelwa ngephutha ukuthi umzimba uvele "upheleke" ngemuva kokushiswa. Eqinisweni, ukushiswa komuntu omdala wesilinganiso kuphumela ekudleni okugcoba okungenani 2.27 - 3.63 kilogram (ama-5 - 8 amakhilogremu).
Nakuba kungenakwenzeka ukuthi umqondisi womngcwabo ofanele noma umeluleki wezinhlelo angeke akwazi ukwenza ukuthi ukushiswa kwabantu kuhlale kucacile kusengaphambili, abasindile abaqaphele leli qiniso bangase baxoxwe (ngezinye izikhathi) ngokungahambi kahle kokudabuka nokungajwayelekile komphakathi jikelele inqubo yokushisa .
Ukunganaki ngalokho okumele kwenziwe nge-cremated kusele ama-akhawunti eminye imindeni engeke iqoqe ama-urns neziqukathi zesikhashana zokushisa ezithwala izinsalela zabathandekayo babo. Namuhla, abantu abaningi bahlobanisa ukusabalalisa ngokushisa kodwa abaqapheli ukuthi kunezinye izindlela eziningi ezihlukile zokusingatha izinsalela zokushiswa .
Ukufuna okuthile okunye "okufanelekile" kumuntu oshonile, futhi engazi ukuthi kuningi okukhethwa kukho, imindeni ethile ayitsheli ukuthi izidumbu zabathandekayo zabo zithintekile ngoba (ngephutha) bacabanga ukuthi badinga ukunquma ukuthi benzeni nabo kuqala.
Okokugcina, esinye isizathu esisaqhubeka singahambi kahle ukuthi ukuqoqa izinsalela ezithandwa ngumuntu othandekayo kudinga ukuvuma ukuthi kwenzekani ukufa, okuyinto abanye abantu abakuthola kunzima ukwamukela . Ngenkathi wonke umuntu ehlangabezana nesisindo esiyingqayizivele sokwehlukumezeka ngokuhambisana nesikhathi nokuqina, ukulila "okujwayelekile" kugcina kugcina ukuqaphela ukuthi othandekayo oshonile uqinisile, akahambanga kahle. Kwezinye izimo, abantu abakwazi ukubhekana nalokhu futhi ngakho-ke bagweme ukuqoqa izinsalela zomuntu othandekayo ngoba, ngokuqaphela noma cha, ukwenza kanjalo bafuna ukugwema. Nakuba " usizi oluyinkimbinkimbi " olunjalo lungase luchaze izimo ezithile zokuhlala ezingenakudliwa, ngokuqinisekile akuziphenduli iningi labo.
