Remembrance


I was wondering what would be appropriate to post at this time, and remembered Agatha mentioning lighting candles on Edwin's Buddhist shrine. If I had a picture of it, maybe I could post that. I searched for some Buddhist prayers and found this.

Buddha taught that all life is impermanent and that all those who are born must eventually pass from this life. However, everyone has within them the seeds of their past virtues, which have the power to bring a fortunate rebirth in the future.

We pray that through the power of this virtue, through the blessings of the holy beings, and through the force of our heartfelt prayers, our dear friend, Edwin, will experience great good fortune and everlasting peace and happiness.

We also pray for the bereaved relatives and friends, that they may be comforted in their loss and find peace of mind and strength of heart.

May all beings without exception be released from suffering, and find true happiness and everlasting peace.
