When people die, there is a stone tablet in front of the grave. The older generation said that if the stone tablet fell, it could not be lifted, so let it fall. Why? What is this statement?

I've heard this question before. Superstition is that after death, the soul enters the underworld, but the grave becomes the home of another world. The stone tablet is just like the house number now. If the stone tablet stands, it means that the soul of the deceased is still there and there is no reincarnation. The drop of the stone tablet shows that the soul of the deceased has left hell or been reborn or ascended to heaven, both of which are better than staying in hell. If the fallen stone tablet is erected, it means that the deceased does not want to stay in the underworld, or hopes that new members will join the ranks of the deceased. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the stone tablet will not be willing to help up when it falls down.
