“The jewel of community, the Sangha, is to be held equal to the Buddha and the Dharma. Indeed, the whole of the holy life is fulfilled through spiritual friendship.”

A transfer of merit ceremony is a traditional Buddhist practice of dedicating the good that comes from our generosity, ethical conduct, and meditation to the well-being of others: loved ones, those who have passed, and all beings. It completes our dana practice by releasing any clinging to the fruits of giving. Like lighting many lamps from one flame, merit shared only grows.

Common times to request a ceremony:
🙏 Supporting someone who is seriously ill or in hospice
🌸 After a birth, wedding, or other life milestone
🧘 Following a retreat, ordination, or personal practice commitment
💐 During grief or loss of any kind
🌍 In response to disaster, conflict, or collective suffering
🎂 On birthdays, as a dedication of merit for the year ahead
✨ Simply as a regular part of one's spiritual practice

For the death of a loved one:
🕯️ Held on day 7 following a death
🕯️ Held on day 49 following a death

🕯️ Held at 100 days following a death
🕯️ Annually, on the death anniversary

🌑 Online: Monthly, on or about each new moon
🙏 In person: By request, anytime

All are welcome to join us. 💛

Like all skills, mindfulness and meditation may be taught. But in order to present the benefits of the practice as well as making it personal and relatable there needs to be a trusting relationship between the speaker and audience.

Honoring Life, Embracing Impermanence

All that we see and experience is impermanent, including those we hold dear. In this time of grief, we are given the chance to celebrate their life with love, gratitude, and fond remembrance.

We warmly provide funerary and memorial services to all who ask, guided by Khmer Buddhist tradition and offered with compassion and respect. Our services include:

• Funeral Services: A dignified ceremony chanting blessings and prayers, helping the family say farewell and send their loved one onward with peace.
• 7-Day Memorial Service: A merit-making ceremony one week after passing, where family and friends gather to offer food and gifts and dedicate the merit to the departed.
• 100-Day Memorial Service: A ceremony marking one hundred days, honoring the life of the deceased and sharing merit once more, with chanting, offerings, and a communal meal.

Through these rites, we honor the memory of those who have passed and bring comfort and community to the family in their time of need.

Please contact us to arrange a service or to ask any questions. We are here to support you.
