Caring for the Heart During Change

We offer compassionate support during aging, dying, and grief. Whether you're facing loss or caring for a loved one, we’re here to walk with you through life’s transitions.

What we offer

Prayers and Ritual Support

We help organize traditional prayers at our parent monastery in India for those who have passed. We also translate practice texts and teach students how to perform these ceremonies locally, so they can be accessible in your own community.

Grief Support with Compassion

To offer compassionate, non-sectarian support to those who are grieving loss, helping them navigate the emotional and spiritual transition with care, understanding, and presence.

Support for Independent Elders

For elders who are still able to care for themselves, we offer help with day-to-day tasks like driving, cooking, and staying connected — so they can maintain independence and dignity for as long as possible.

End-of-Life Support

We support elderly and terminally ill individuals as they approach the end of life. Our presence and care help them prepare emotionally and spiritually, reducing fear and bringing comfort to their final days.

About the Organization

We are an international group of people who strive to ease the challenges of those who are aging and nearing death as well as to provide tools to help those who are grieving for a loved one. One way we do this is by helping to organize traditional prayers to facilitate the transition of loved ones who have passed.  One of the most unknown and feared aspects of human life is what happens at death and after death. By giving tools to deal with the various aspects of death, we can give comfort and courage in facing it. 

Easing the stress on both the elderly and their caregivers will make our communities stronger and more sustainable. Our work in grief support, helps to heal the hearts of those who are wounded, again supporting the health and harmony of our communities.
