Comment questions regarding Jain Services
Jain funeral rites hold deep spiritual significance within the Jain community. These rituals reflect the Jain belief in non-violence, simplicity, and detachment from material possessions. During Jain funeral ceremonies, the body is treated with the utmost respect, and the process involves minimal environmental impact. Cremation is a common practice, although some Jain sects opt for more eco-friendly methods like burial without harming living organisms. Jain funeral rites emphasize the idea of freeing the soul from the cycle of rebirth and attaining moksha, or liberation, through the shedding of karmas accumulated over lifetimes. Family and community members gather to offer prayers, recite sacred texts, and reflect on the impermanence of life while seeking spiritual elevation for the departed soul.
Extremely courteous and professional. We had a service for our Grandfather that was completed through Berge-Pappas-Smiths’ guidance and our family was very well cared for. I’m grateful for the conversations that took place to coordinate our services - they were thoughtful, direct and easy to work with. They made a difference for our family during a strenuous time and especially helped with our vendor management and arrangements. Thanks for your services and care.
