Soka Funeral Services & Packages in Singapore

Soka Funeral Singapore

At Ang Brothers Funeral Services, we understand the unique and dignified approach of Soka Gakkai practices. We provide compassionate and professional funeral services tailored for the Soka community in Singapore, honoring their distinct traditions with utmost respect.

We are professionals in organizing and hosting Soka Funeral Services in Singapore. With our extensive experience, we are dedicated to supporting families through this solemn time, ensuring a service that truly reflects the beliefs of Nichiren Buddhism.

According to the beliefs of the Soka Association, all people possess a semblance of “Buddhahood”, so there is no need for a priest or clergy to be present in the Soka religion.

A common misconception of Soka is that it is a simplified form of Buddhism. However, Soka is actually a Japanese Buddhist religion based on the teaching of Nichiren, a Japanese Priest in the 13th Century.

What is a Soka Funeral Service?

A Soka Funeral Service, rooted in Nichiren Buddhism, offers a respectful farewell centered on the belief that all individuals possess “Buddhahood.” Unlike traditional Buddhist funerals, Soka services do not involve monks. Instead, the ceremony is led by fellow Soka Gakkai members.

The core of the service involves the chanting of Daimoku (Nam-myoho-renge-kyo) and recitations of the Sutra. The emphasis is on simplicity and dignity in all rituals, aiming to reflect sympathy upon the deceased and aid their peaceful transition.
