Annual Memorial Service

|
|
|
|

Singapore Buddhist Meditation Centre will hold, its annual memorial service in September every year. This is the season to remember your dear departed loved ones, by transferring merit to them. The duty of the living is to make various offerings to the monks or to the needy ones, and transfer the merits of those virtuous actions to the Departed.
|
Those living relatives, who transfer merit, should mention the Departed Ones, specifically by their
name. When those departed spirits receive the merits transferred to them; they feel a sense of happiness and relief. They, in turn bless the living friends and relatives who have transferred merits to them. Those departed ones wish the living, prosperity, long life and good health.
