Question asked by Freon
Dear Master Tsem, my grandpa is very old, about 80 going to 90 yrs. May i know is there any special mantra to chant for him and other old people? These old people they are about 80 going to 90 yrs, for them is too late to understand Dharma. If i will to give them a Buddha statue, or a chakra or any Buddha image to him, i do not think he can appreciate it. They are very old and they don't come across to any Dharma knowledge, and worst, his life is getting short. So am thinking, for a person like me, whom did not know much about mantra, is there any simple way to chant and dedicate the merits to him. At least for him to be able to listen to Dharma for the next life. Is Manjushri Chant able to helps? Thank you.
It would be good for him to recite Kuan Yin’s mantra daily. If he doesn’t want to do, it’s ok.
You can do Dharma work sincerely and dedicate to him. Dharma work is so beneficial to dedicate to people we love and care about or have strong connection to us. You can also do Medicine Buddha and dedicate to him.
Good luck. TR
