Therefore, the chanting service for both the late and living
beings is important. It reflects the love towards others even
though they have left this world. The merits transferred is very
helpful for both living and dead. It also evokes one's love
through the practice of altruism from the chanting service that
benefit the living beings and sending harmonious wave to its
surrounding environment as well. It is also a manifestation of
filial piety and grateful towards ancestors. In fact, most of the
living beings still required this service in view of the bardo
state.
