Helvetia Sexualis

Descripción Caer hasta tocar el fondo último, desolado, hecho de un viejo silenciar y de figuras que dicen y repiten algo que me alude, no comprendo qué, nunca comprendo, nadie comprendería. Esas figuras -dibujadas por mí en un muro- en lugar de exhibir la hermosa inmovilidad que antes era su privilegio, ahora danzan y cantan, pues han decidido cambiar de naturaleza (si la naturaleza existe, si el cambio, la decisión...). Por eso hay en mis noches voces en mis huesos, y también -y es esto lo que me hace dolerme- visiones de palabras escritas pero que se mueven, combaten, danzan, manan sangre, luego las miro andar con muletas, en harapos, corte de los milagros de la a hasta z, alfabeto de miserias, alfabeto de crueldades... La que debió cantar se arquea de silencio, mientras en sus dedos se susurra, en su corazón se murmura, en su piel un lamento no cesa... (Es preciso conocer este lugar de metamorfosis para comprender por qué me duelo de una manera tan complicada.)

Sky Burial.

Sky burial (Tibetan: Wylie: bya gtor, lit. “bird-scattered) is a funeral practice in which a human corpse is placed on a mountaintop to decompose while exposing to the elements or to be eaten by scavenging animals, especially birds of prey. It is a specific type of the general practice of excarnation. It is practiced in the Chinese provinces of Tibet, Qinghai, Sichuan and Inner Mongolia, and in Mongolia proper. The locations of preparation and sky burial are understood in the Vajrayana Buddhist traditions as charnel grounds. Comparable practices are part of Zoroastrian burial practices where deceased are exposed to the elements and birds of prey on stone structures called Dakhma. Few such places remain operational today due to religious marginalisation, urbanisation and the decimation of vulture populations.

The majority of Tibetan people and many Mongols adhere to Vajrayana Buddhism, which teaches the transmigration of spirits. There is no need to preserve the body, as it is now an empty vessel. Birds may eat it or nature may cause it to decompose. The function of the sky burial is simply to dispose of the remains in as generous a way as possible (the source of the practice’s Tibetan name). In much of Tibet and Qinghai, the ground is too hard and rocky to dig a grave, and, due to the scarcity of fuel and timber, sky burials were typically more practical than the traditional Buddhist practice of cremation. In the past, cremation was limited to high lamas and some other dignitaries, but modern technology and difficulties with sky burial have led to its increasing use by commoners.
