When someone dies, he may be reborn from the moment the passes away up till 49 days. In between the 49 days, if he has not been reborn yet, and he is still feeling attached to his family or things like that, he might come back and visit. But it has nothing to do with which days. If he comes back, he comes back due to his attachment. It is best that you tell the deceased to leave peacefully, and that all is fine so that he can let go of his attachments.Originally posted by me_a_clone:is it ture tat on the sixth day the decease will sneak back home and 7th day will be escorted back?
Report to King Yan.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:And what do you mean by 'escorted back'? Back to where?
I see. Not everyone who dies reports to King Yama, but I think those who are reborn in hell does.Originally posted by knightlll:Report to King Yan.
here is some info ,Originally posted by me_a_clone:is it ture tat on the sixth day the decease will sneak back home and 7th day will be escorted back?
i understood the term touqi, erqi ===> qiqi= 49.. but will she sneak back w/o permission? becaz the decease in question is my mum.. i wan to understand will she be back today and tomorow...Originally posted by bohiruci:here is some info ,
ppl who have read the tibetan book of dying that on the first seventh day
the conscious of the deceased will visit the loved ones
as in "tou qi "
so the understanding is that consciousness will come and visit the family as long as he /she is in the first 49 days in the state of zhongyinsheng![]()

I am sorry to hear about your mum. You could find out from the monks what sutra and what merits to make on behalf of your mum. Certain actions are very powerful to create merits to the deceased.Originally posted by me_a_clone:i understood the term touqi, erqi ===> qiqi= 49.. but will she sneak back w/o permission? becaz the decease in question is my mum.. i wan to understand will she be back today and tomorow...

Originally posted by justdoit77:Yes and therefore best to replace crying with chanting.. And best to chant as much as possible.
hi me_a_clone
sorry to hear about that.
one important thing is, don't cry in front of the deceased, they will get very disturbed emotionally.
Yes and according to mahayana as well
If according to tibetan buddhism, shouldn't anyhow touch their body when they just pass away.
Sad to say that as long as you are in samsara, forever you have to suffer for the lost of family members and friends.Originally posted by me_a_clone:we did not touch her body when she pass away and i did cry a bit when the coffin is being wheel in to be cremated. Me and my bros did on behalf of her buy (ka sa) <== thai monk robe and gift it to them.
i myself know that death is a must for all living bodies. and accept that ( you yin, bi you guo ) we can only help her by transfering merit to her now. but still maybe she is my mum, i still miss her alot and wan her to be back here.
I understand that you are sad because of the passing away of your mother..Originally posted by me_a_clone:but still maybe she is my mum, i still miss her alot and wan her to be back here.
