Non-denominational Funeral Service – Look at the beauty of the gardens and see how they have adorned themselves for me and for you!

Zen monk Abbot Reding from the Honora Zen monastery organizes the Non-denominational funeral service according to your wishes in a respectful, dignified and individual way.

Prayer and Meditation

Go out, my heart, and seek joy in this difficult time in the gifts of your God; look at the beauty of the gardens and see how they have adorned themselves for me and for you. Trees are full of leaves, the earth covers its dust with a green dress; Narcissism and the Tulipan, they dress much nicer than Solomon's silk. The lark soars into the air, the little dove flies out of his cloak and sets off for the woods; the gifted nightingale amuses and fills mountains, hills, valleys and fields with its sound.

The mother hen takes her flock out, the stork builds and lives in his house, the little swallow feeds the young, the swift stag, the light deer is happy and jumps out of its height into the deep grass. The brook murmurs in the sand and is painted around its edge with shady myrtle; the meadows lie close by and ring with the joyful cries of the sheep and their shepherds. Flies to and fro, the indefatigable flock of bees, seeking here and there their noble honey food; The strong sap of the sweet vine daily brings new strength and power in its weak journey.

Non-denominational Funeral

Wheat grows by force; Young and old rejoice over this and praise the great goodness of him who refreshes so superfluously and who has endowed the human soul with so many good things. I myself cannot and do not want to rest; the great deeds of God awaken all my senses; I sing along when everyone sings, and let what sounds to the highest flow from my heart. All the best on your final journey and rest in peace!
