At Nirvana Singapore, our Buddhist funeral services are designed to reflect these values at every stage of the journey, ensuring that your loved one’s passing is marked with peace and serenity.

From consultation and making early preparation to choosing your preferred funeral service and final resting place, our professional Buddhist funeral team will ensure a smooth and personalised Buddhist funeral ceremony for your departed loved one.

Understanding Buddhist Funeral
Rituals and Traditions

Buddhist Funeral Rituals and Traditions
Rooted in Buddhist funeral traditions, a Buddhist funeral is closely link with the concept of reincarnation as Buddhists view death as a transition from the current life to the next, bringing the soul closer to Nirvana.

Central to these traditions are rituals performed by Buddhist monks, including the chanting of sacred sutras and the making of offerings (i.e. food, incense sticks, and symbolic items) to help generate positive karma for the deceased and to provide solace to those left behind.

However, Buddhist funerals in Singapore combine Buddha’s teachings with Chinese customs which are based on individual dialects. And, with the passing of time, most Buddhist funeral arrangements have been simplified and are more environmentally-friendly.

Buddhist Funeral Service Package Inclusions

At Nirvana Singapore, we understand that during such an emotional and difficult time, every detail matters.

Hence, every aspect of our package is carefully curated to seamlessly blend time-honoured rituals with the highest standards of service.

We offer different packages for you to choose from, with each Buddhist funeral package consisting of:

Typically, the funeral wake will be held at the HBD Void Deck or a funeral parlour. Our team will help set up necessary items, including reception table, condolence money box, memorial box, signage book, and stationary box.

Depending on the space, we will provide additional equipment such as tables, fans, chairs, chair covers and chiller for those who come for the funeral.
