Death is an inevitable consequence of existence, yet it continues to be one of the most intense and hard experiences. It’s crucial to recognise the gravity of these feelings at such tough times and look for comfort and support through your community and traditions as you travel through the grieving process. Across cultural, religious, and racial boundaries, the grief that accompanies a loss of this scale is universal. Despite this universal experience of mourning, every community has a distinctive way of bidding goodbye to their loved ones. Kaashimukthi recognises the importance of these and offers tailored services for all communities including the Iyengar community. The Indian Iyengar community has high regard for its faith and belief system, which is strongly embedded in its funeral and cremation services. The community preserve their cultural identity and pays tribute to their ancestors’ traditions by upholding specific practices and ceremonies.
