The Japanese Buddhist mourners don black but others may put on white. In any situation, bright colors are never appropriate and neither is showcase of wealth when wearing the clothing. There may also be some kneeling on a cushion for prayer in the funeral, so remember that when choosing a funeral attire.

When you arrive at a funeral or wake, you need to proceed quietly to the altar. When the mourners reach the casket, the etiquette calls for them to pay the respect with a slight bow, folded hands in a prayer position. They may also pause in front of the casket for a quiet moment of reflection. After they are done paying the respects, the mourners get seated and wait for the service to start. Usually, follow the behavior like sitting and standing go. If they stand, the mourners must stand as well.

The service must entail sermons, chanting and eulogies which are delivered by monks and other Buddhists who knew the deceased person. There may also be group meditation organized. The mourners must always be a part of the chanting, if they cannot, they should just sit quietly.
