My mother passed away just over 2 months ago and I was very close to her. While she was sick, I took care of her and tried to make her life as comfortable as possible given the pain that she was in. My question is: in Buddhism, do people honor or worship their relatives who have passed, and can they still hear from even after some time has passed?

    Buddhists do charities and then transfer the merit to their deceased family members in order to help the family member gets a good rebirth. You can google search this word: “pattidana” .

    The practice is based on Khudakka Nikaya and Ksitigarbha Sutra.
