Accordingly to Buddhist belief, after 49 days, the souls reincarnation begins.

Major Buddhism temples in China all held prayer rituals for the about 2,700 victims killed in the earthquake The monks prayed for the victims’ souls and for the survivors to overcome the hardships caused by the disaster.

Our prayers also go to the victims and their families.
