神葬祭 KO-SHINTO FUNERALS
誰もがいずれ逝くその一道。神葬祭は自然に根ざした古神道の死生観/霊魂観で故人を弔う、誠に尊い葬儀でございます。
仏式の様な戒名が要りませんので、葬儀費用は良心的です。
お線香も用いませんので、喪服やお部屋に匂いが染みつくのを気になさらなくて良い、という利点もございます。
日本人の御家族様が、その尊い一生の幕をアメリカで閉じられる際、御葬式にお困りの御遺族様。
アメリカ人の神道崇敬者で、神葬祭を切望なさる方。
大切なペットの葬儀。
故人様を家の守り神としてお祀りなさりたい方。
公の鎮魂慰霊祭など。
身罷りし御霊と御遺族様に寄り添い、御役に立てれば幸いです。
