TAOISM FUNERAL PACKAGE
(HDB VOID DECK)
The Taoist Funeral
Taoism is both a philosophy and religion. It favors the natural world and revolves around the concept of the Tao or cosmic energy. Taoism believes the afterlife exists within life itself. Additionally, the philosophy of Taoism centres on an idea that the deceased still lives on the memories of their loved ones.
Taoist funeral rituals and procedures may vary depending on the wishes of the deceased or the preferences of the bereaved family. Every rite and practice holds a specific meaning but despite the differences, the common principle of a taoist funeral is to help the deceased repent the sins they committed on earth.
A Taoist funeral package typically includes Taoist priest chanting sessions. Taoist decors, Taoist lanterns, paper house sets, tentage setup and the common funeral elements such as tables, chairs and flower arrangements.
Before the funeral, family members clean the body of the deceased with a wet towel dusted with talcum powder to prepare it for the funeral. Then, they dress the body with either white, black, brown or blue. A sacred ceremony will then take place. It includes the lighting of a sacred lamp that symbolises the light of wisdom and two candles that symbolise sunlight and moonlight. Smells of incense and flowers also surround the area.
