The psalter and prayers are the deceased. Tatian Antanovich

Reading Psalter for the deceased Christians is the help and comfort from the soul of the deceased, which will be before God, awaiting His righteous judgment. The soul of the deceased is like a helpless baby who is waiting for our prayer. If, during the earthly life, we need prayer help, it is difficult to overestimate its meaning at the moment when the fate of the soul in eternity is decided!.. The reading of the psalter also serves as a consolation for the living, mourning for separation from the deceased. When a person closes in his pain, loss, his soul can cover despair. And if at that moment he turns to God and the emptiness will fill the prayer in his soul, a person will definitely feel the fertile help and the heart of the heart.
