Buddhist tablets are Buddhist ritual objects used to enshrine and honor the spirits of individuals. They are considered important for ancestral veneration.
The Buddhist name (kaimyo) is inscribed on the front of the tablet.
Even without a Buddhist name, you can create a suitable tablet using the deceased's secular name by adding 之霊位 (no reii) after it. Adding 之霊位 after the secular name is considered to have the same meaning as receiving a Buddhist name.

If you wish to have the Buddhist name and other details handwritten, we will do so free of charge. Please refer to the last image for examples.
After purchase, please provide the Buddhist name you wish to have handwritten, the posthumous title (e.g., Koji for men, Daishi for women), the date of death, the secular name (full name), and the age at death. We will then handwrite these details for you free of charge. Of course, you are also welcome to purchase the tablet alone.

We will also handwrite the date of death, secular name (full name), and age at death free of charge.

In the Kanto region, the Buddhist name and date of death are inscribed on the front of the tablet, and the secular name and age at death are inscribed on the back.

In the Tokai and western Japan regions, only the Buddhist name is inscribed on the front of the tablet, and the secular name and age at death are inscribed on the back.

There are regional differences. If you already have an ancestral tablet, the layout will be made to match it.
