Buddhist Funeral Services in Singapore

Life's final journey is a deeply personal moment that deserves to be honored with dignity and grace. Here in Singapore, we understand that Buddhist funerals are more than just ceremonies – they're meaningful celebrations of life that bring comfort to both the departed and their loved ones. Whether at a tranquil funeral parlor or within your familiar HDB community, we're here to help create a serene and respectful farewell that aligns with your family's Buddhist beliefs and traditions.

Understanding Buddhist Funeral Traditions & Rites

  • The Buddhist funeral ceremony typically spans 3-7 days, following traditional Buddhist funeral rituals. Buddhist monks lead the services, chanting appropriate sutras to guide the departed soul.

    Depending on the family's preference, these ceremonies can be conducted at temples, dedicated wake venues, or HDB void decks.

  • During the wake period, Buddhist casket viewing allows visitors to pay their final respects. Our Buddhist funeral packages include professional casket preparation and presentation, ensuring dignity in every detail.

    We offer a range of Buddhist casket options suitable for different preferences and budgets.

  • Buddhist funeral prayers and offerings play a crucial role in the ceremony. Visitors participate in bringing offerings such as incense, flowers, and food, following Buddhist tradition. These acts are considered a final act of merit-making for the deceased.

  • Our Buddhist hearse service ensures a dignified final journey for your loved one. The funeral procession follows Buddhist funeral traditions, with proper ceremonial elements and professional coordination.
