Prayers Service For The Decrease one To The 49 Day An Ling

For Buddhists and Taoists, the cremation or burial of a departed loved one is not necessarily the end of the death ritual. Many will engage in prayer and offering ceremonies over a period of 49 days following the passing of a kin. This 49-day long ritual is what we call an ling (安灵) and ji ling (寄灵). Why do people observe the an ling and ji ling tradition and what’s needed when doing so? Read on for a quick understanding.
THE PURPOSE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF AN LING AND JI LING
You may already know that reincarnation or rebirth is a central concept in Buddhism and Taoism. To explain further, when a person passes on, they enter an intermediate state between their previous life and next life. The transition can last as long as 49 days, which is why family members continue with prayer rituals for that duration, so as to give the spirit of their loved one a place to rest while awaiting reincarnation.
In addition, the prayers are meant to guide the deceased in their journey towards a new life. This is also a way for bereaved descendants to show filial piety and respect for an elder who has passed. While an ling refers to the 49-day long offering carried out at home, ji ling takes place in a temple, monastery or columbarium.
