How can alive help a deceased person, facilitate his transition to eternity? First of all, by prayers to the Lord for the forgiveness of the sins of the deceased and the rest of his immortal soul.
This publication provides a canon about the deceased one, which should be read to relatives immediately after the outcome of the human soul from the body, and then daily until the burial of the deceased, and preferably until the 40th day.
The rank of memorial lithium (a brief memorial prayer), which is committed by a priest after the tradition of the body of the deceased land, is also given. In the absence of a priest, relatives can read Lithuania themselves, and subsequently read it, removing the deceased home or in the cemetery
