And (2) How can we determine that it has occurred? The first question is ontological or conceptual. An answer to this question will consist of a definition (or conceptualization). Examples include death as the irreversible cessation of organismic functioning and human death as the irreversible loss of personhood. The second question is epistemological. A complete answer to this question will furnish both a general standard (or criterion) for determining that death has occurred and specific clinical tests to show whether the standard has been met in a given case. Examples of standards for human death are the traditional cardiopulmonary standard and the whole-brain standard. Insofar as clinical tests are primarily a medical concern, the present entry will not address them.

Some Amazonian indigenous people emerged from a hole located in the district of La Chorrera. One of the gods, Moma, chose this place because it is the channel through which the earth could breath. Gitoma (Gitoma is the main huitoto mythical entity, is the bridge between the gods, heroes and men, because he is versatile. He is the restorer of identity, liberation, organizer and nominator.) Is the main character of their worldview. There is the myth of Amazonian Tikunas tribe, which explains the arrival of death to their tribe. Women during their first menstruation were away from the rest of the community and should not have contact with the environment. Summary of Ritual in France Unlike the daily practices of the passage of time, the ritual has an important symbolic hand: first, it invests believing the fact that we will be better and on the other hand, it refers to a higher order that secures us and strengthens our humanity: the group, the natural elements, belief in a supernatural power, says Luce Des Aulniers, anthropologist and professor in the Department of Communications and the Centre for Studies on the death of UQAM. In the Catholic religion, all traditional rites includes the visit to the exhibition (exposure), the funeral ceremony , procession ( procession leaving the church and going to the cemetery ) , the reception after the funeral , the disposition of the body and Memorial ceremony.

In this tiny little brochure we will explain the 2 following cultural points of view: AMAZONE FRANCE A girl who was not obeyed that command and spoke to the spirit of the age called through the wall of his cell. "Age" exchanged her skin with her and since then the Tikuna tribe knows the mortal state Conclusion according to the Vejez spirit : according to this myth, our investigation and the traditional perception of death based in our religions we conclude that the worldview of indigenous peoples are similar to the biblical story, it mean, Adam and Eve of Christians. For example, the guilt of our mortal state was a disobedient woman that felt excluded of the world and the Vejez spirit also tempted her and this character is the snake in the biblical story.
