Abstract
This paper examines Myanmar funeral ceremony in Buddhism and more particularly in
Myanmar, where many traditions are not based on Buddhist tradition and the funerals have
included many of unnecessary, extraneous items and superstitious practices into the funeral
rites. The extraneous items and practices vary according to the traditions and customs of the
people. The word funeral means ‘not grace’ in Pāḷi language and different terms are used
depending on the person who dies. Everybody encounters death and it can come anytime
anywhere. Aging, suffering pain and death are part of life. This paper looks at the activities
involved in Myanmar funeral ceremonies. In Myanmar funeral ceremony people do the
activities such as washing the death body; tying thumbs and big toes, offering food to monks,
the placement of strings with the body, breaking the pot, etc. These activities and their origins
will be explored in this paper. This paper shows that the activities studied in this paper are not
the tradition of Buddhism
