The region of Toraja in Indonesia harbors a tradition that leaves one astounded. A video that has garnered millions of views on social media revealed a woman who has been preserving her deceased mother's body at home for an extended period, continuing to care for her as if she were still alive. The body, mummified using special solutions and traditional medicines, is taken outside daily for fresh air. Moments of the woman meticulously combing her late mother's hair and carefully arranging her clothes in the garden were captured minute by minute by onlookers.
They don't believe in death. They consider the deceased to be 'in a deep sleep'. Here is that tradition👇🏻
In the belief system of the Toraja people, an individual who has stopped breathing is not immediately referred to as 'dead'. Those who have passed away are considered merely 'sick' or 'in a deep sleep' by their family members. Consequently, instead of being promptly buried, the deceased are often kept in a place of honor in the family home for months, and sometimes even years.
The body of the deceased does not leave the home until the necessary financial resources for the funeral and the preparations for the ritual are complete. Throughout this period, family members continue to provide daily meals for their departed loved ones, change their clothes, engage in conversation, and even maintain their hair care. In Toraja culture, where death is seen not as an end but as a long rest period before transitioning to the afterlife, this practice is considered a highly natural and respected tradition.
