PARITTA CHANTING FOR THE SICK AND THE DEPARTED ONES

Buddha quotes
It is better to spend one day contemplating the birth and death of all things than a hundred years never contemplating beginnings and endings.


Imagine a life partner, a family member or a close friend of yours is dying. How might she or he be feeling? Facing death, being in pain, what are her or his intimate needs and wishes? What happens to us when staying with a dying person? How can we deal with the sorrow, the confusing thoughts and the trying situation? How should we communicate with her or him and with the family members and friends? When a beloved person is dying we are touched to our deepest core. Difficult, painful emotions may rush up, stirring in our hearts. Dying and death becomes a great challenger, breaking into our lives – which we try so hard to keep calm and under control.
A small group of Buddhist Devotees invited a monk to give a Puja with Paritta Chanting to all those who are facing death, illness and to all the departed relatives or friends on this coming Saturday and everyone is invited to participate to this ceremony and the details are as follows:
