Supernatural event at mothers funeral?

When I was at mothers funeral yesterday. We had something bizarre happen. I was walking up towards the table her urn was on. No one else was around the table at the time. I was looking for her urn and about for feet away from the urn when all of a sudden a gust of wind came up and funneled directly into the urn blowing it out off the middle of the table and out of the reef of flowers it was in and onto the ground breaking the urn into many peices. The funeral director said that never should of happened because it was surrounded by a reef of flowers and it has never happened before. The wind didn%26#039;t move anything else on the table, not any of the flowers or anything. The open side of the tent was next to the woods. It wasn%26#039;t very windy outside. Just mainly the one big gust of wind that came out of the woods that knocked the urn to the ground. Would you call this a supernatural event? What meaning would you give it?

It was your mother%26#039;s way of showing you that she is still around. What better way then using her own ashes? Maybe she was saying goodbye as she was getting ready to leave the earthly plane for the spiritual one. Many people believe that the soul lingers on the earthly plane for 3 days after the death of the physical body. If this event happened within tha t time frame, then it is possible that she was indeed saying goodbye.
Reply:In case you haven%26#039;t noticed, this is the Philosophy category. This question belongs in the I Believe That Somehow If A Clay Pot Contains Someone%26#039;s Ashes Then The Laws Of Physics Might Apply Differently To It Despite The Fact That All Scientific Evidence And All Principles Of Logic Say That%26#039;s Totally Ridiculous And Absurd category. Unfortunately, there is no such category, so instead I%26#039;ll have to recommend something like Religion %26amp; Spirituality or Mythology %26amp; Folklore (both found as subcategories of the Society %26amp; Culture category).
Reply:Stuff happens. It%26#039;s entirely possible an aberration occurred at your mother%26#039;s funeral service. After the death of my grandmother on my mother%26#039;s side of the family, I was awakened in the middle of the night by her image, healthy and fully restored (she died a protracted death of cancer). She spoke to me and I spoke back, with my wife as a witness to the event, and no one can convince me that it didn%26#039;t happen. My wife says I was fully awake, I have Christian values, yet I know what I saw. Unexplainable events occur all the time to those who are open to believing they can happened. I have no doubt that your story is true. Accept it as an unexplainable event. Perhaps at sometime in your future, an explanation will come to you. Who knows?
Reply:sorry about your mother :(


that%26#039;s freaky. Maybe it%26#039;s supernatural and if it was your mother, what would she be trying to tell you by knocking her urn over and breaking it?
Reply:Honestly that is pretty bizarre, but I wouldn%26#039;t look too much into it. I%26#039;ve had something similar happen to me at a friends memorial. I just think with all of the emotions and overwhelming thoughts we are LOOKING for something like that to happen to give us some sort of sign that they are still around,even if it is in a spiritual form. Would you have felt the same if that happened under different circumstances?
Reply:I honestly dont want to knock down your belief of it being a supernatural encounter, but to even begin to believe it is REALLY a supernatural encounter you have to take into account a ton of variables that could have knocked down an urn besides just wind. However I will say the subconscious works in very extreme, and unbelievable ways.
