2. Assisted Nianfo & Merit Transfer 助念及回向

If you want us to offer assisted Nianfo (within 49 days of passing) and merit transference for any beings (sending blessings and wishing for their rebirth in the Pure Land in this lifetime or merit transfer for the deceased), you can apply by filling out the form here or letting our admin know in our Global Nianfo WhatsApp group or Telegram group.

For those wish to apply for us to conduct assisted Nianfo and to have the names added to our merit transfer list, you need to commit to coming to our Nianfo Zoom for at least one hour a day to Nianfo, or report a minimum of 500 counts to us (you only need to follow but you don’t need to lead, so you aren’t required to unmute your mic) for a period of 3 months and do personal merit transfer on your own time. In that one hour, you can also volunteer to lead Nianfo for half an hour (see below for how you can apply through us in advance).

If you require urgent assisted Nianfo for the dying, you can simply email us, contact us via our website, or let our admin know in our Global Nianfo WhatsApp and Telegram groups. Inform us about the situation and we will see what we can do for you. It is best if you can help assist Nianfo by watching the three videos below, in which Jiawen talks about “How to Assist Nianfo for the Dying” and also study Patriarch Yinguang’s letter on “The Three Important Matters at the Time of Death” here.

If Jiawen and/or our volunteers have time and can make arrangements, we will also help. We can make a video call via Zoom or WhatsApp, and we can guide the person who is at the time of death to let go and Nianfo to attain rebirth, provided that family members around the person agree to process to be taken place in that circumstance.

Assisted Nianfo Volunteers 

“The best gift is the gift of the Dharma.” - Buddha

If you want to volunteer to be our Nianfo facilitator and lead a Nianfo session (usually half an hour per volunteer), you can apply by filling the form here and emailing it back to us. You can read the guide on how to lead a Nianfo session here. For leading Nianfo, your pace should be neither too slow nor too fast. You should just recite and not chant in different tones, as singing can be difficult for people to follow. If you are not sure how to Nianfo, you can watch a list of videos here where Jiawen talks about it and also watch our Nianfo videos below.

If you would like to be our assisted Nianfo volunteer, you can apply by filling out the form here and email it back to us.
