Helping the Dead
Helping the Dead
by Rob Nairn
A great deal can be done to help the dead, according to Buddhist teachings. When entering this area most of us find ourselves in strange territory, because we are familiar only with the practice of saying prayers for the dead and perhaps the offering of candles. In general people feel that those who have died are beyond help. This is not the case. As Ringu Tulku points out, this is where Buddhists – particularly Tibetan Buddhists – really swing into action, far more so than for births or weddings.
