Organs donated and the rest burned?

This option can be even much better. After death, you can give your healthy organs to the sick people who need it, and burn the rest.

And the remnants of the cremated body and make them cubic Zirconia. I heard that there is such a technology. It seems to me very convenient. No need for cemeteries. All generations can be stored in one vase.

Wow, that's wonderful! Different people different thoughts and ideology. Grin

Why do you think this is disrespectful? In India always burned the corpses, and the ashes poured into the Ganges. No it is not considered disrespectful. The human body in the decay poisons the land and the graves makes no sense. The memory of the man lives in the minds and not in the monuments.

Right. I would not want my body to poison the environment after death and harm my descendants.

A lifeless body is very good for the soil. It should be situated at least at a distance of 6 feet down however, and covered with soil - this technique has proven to deliver the best results, but without caskets or even clothes, unless the clothing is specially made to be biodegradable and also made such to hasten the decomposition of the flesh, in other words conducive for bacterial growth.

Also, it astonishes me that people would attach any emotion whatsoever to raw elements (have a look at the periodic table) of the earth at all, as are found when ashes are formed after incineration of a lifeless human body.

Yes, if you bury a body without a coffin, then there will not be so much harm from it. Although if there were the proceeds of a complex disease, then the body is better to burn.
