My regrets for my grandmother won't go away

My grandmother passed away the other day due to death, and we had a funeral.
My grandmother and I were far away and it wasn't easy to meet, but I was always spoiled by my kind grandmother.

When I saw my grandmother pass away, I instantly regretted that I had spoiled my grandmother too much until now. This is what I actually thought at the time. If that were the case, I wouldn't have bothered my grandmother, and she thought I would have been happy with her grandson.

When we said goodbye, I properly apologized to my grandmother in my heart and expressed my gratitude, but even so, my heart didn't clear up. I think we'll meet over there someday, but I'm uneasy because I don't know what kind of face to face when we meet.

If regrets remain for the deceased, how can they be resolved...

I offer my condolences.
She was a kind grandmother, wasn't she?
The fact that you have feelings of sadness, loss, and regret means that you cared so much.
So there's no need to solve it.
Please take good care of it as it is.
I think your grandmother was delighted to see how you looked from the other world and cared so much for her.
We may meet again in another world someday.
Let's live our lives so that our grandmother praises us for doing our best at that time.
May your grandmother be at peace.
Please keep an eye on your families.

Please tell your grandmother as it is

I read it.
Your precious grandmother passed away, and you are deeply saddened and very sorry, aren't you? I don't know the details about you, your grandmother, or everyone, but it really conveys your feelings. I understand your feelings from the bottom of my heart.

I pray with all my heart that your grandmother will be at ease from the bottom of my heart. We wholeheartedly agree
Please pray from the bottom of my heart that your grandmother will feel at ease too.

Grandmothers are always guided by Buddha or God, and close people and ancestors who went there first welcome them. The grandmother was reunited with her ancestors and rejoiced, saved from any hesitation or suffering, and achieved Buddhism peacefully without any sorrow. And they will continue to watch over you and everyone peacefully from now on.
My grandmother met you and everyone and lived through the life she was given to her with sincere happiness.
Your sorrows and regrets will never go away, so please tell your grandmother how you feel. Your grandmother will kindly accept all of your thoughts, and she will gently snuggle up to you.
One day, when you complete the life you were given, the Buddha or God will guide you, and your grandmother will gently welcome you along with your ancestors. And they will rejoice at the reunion.

It guides them to a Buddhist relationship where they put their hands together, and they smile with peace of mind.

I would like to express my sincere condolences for the passing of my grandmother. I'm going to miss you.
He was a kind person, wasn't he? If that's the case, you'll be spoiled just by looking at your face. I think they loved you so much. It must have been someone who made me feel pampered.

Did you ever think it bothered you? If that's the case, let's keep watching you. Let's express it in our own way of life so that we can always feel like soba, so that our grandmother can feel at ease.
Don't just stick to words, but let it become a daily action, choice, and attitude (way of life).

Even if it seems like you're living alone, it would be nice if you could feel reassuring when your loved ones are watching and when the Buddha delivers your wishes. That faith will lead us to a world where we will meet again.

If your regrets lead to a Buddhist relationship where you put your hands together, they will smile with peace of mind.

They are gently watching over you and your family, hoping for the well-being of you and your family

I would like to express my sincere condolences to the fact that my kind grandmother passed away.

Your grandmother blames you for being “too spoiled,” but it's definitely not a nuisance. Being relied upon and spoiled by her grandchildren must have been the greatest joy for her grandmother. Please don't blame yourself.

There is no need to worry about “what kind of face should we face when we meet over there.” My grandmother was born in the Pure Land and became a Buddha. The Buddha no longer has any suffering or affliction in this world. Therefore, there is no need to worry “there are no faces to match.” As a Buddha who was despised (despised) by his obsession with this world, he now just wishes for the well-being of you and your family, and is watching over you softly. When you remember your appearance, put your hands together quietly and express your gratitude.

The question is how to resolve regrets about the deceased, but in many cases, time heals the heart. Your grandmother doesn't want you to be bound by regrets and that you can live your own life vigorously. Being able to face forward and live so as to meet those warm expectations will be the best memorial service.
