SERVICES / RITUES AVAILBLE in this Temple




Monthly ritual of burning HELL Bank Notes to the “How Heng Thai”Hades

For thousands of years Buddhist tradition has created paper money which is legal tender in Hell. This paper money is burned, so that the person who just died or the dead ancestors who might have ended up in Hell would have something to spend. Chinese people even create paper cars, houses, and other physical objects out of paper and burn them, so their ancestors can have basic luxuries in hell.

Buddhist belief hell is not an evil place run by the devil. Hell is an in between place of learning and a place of spirit waiting to be reborn. In other words, another dimension of life.

To correct on your post,Buddhism did not create any paper ornaments/tools to salvate its death. pure faith in Buddha's teaching is needed only.

take a look at any Buddhist websites.
