Funeral - Aub Plig


This happens at the burial site where two people take the dirt from the burial site back to the home.
They dirt is placed under the bed of the deceased person.

The person carrying the dirt must never look back. Only forward.

The reason why we do this is so that the spirit (tej ntsuj tej plig) of all the people who come help bury the person find there way back home. It represents a path back home.
