Same thing that happens to every one else at death. No one can say for sure.

But Buddhism does not really focus on what happens after death, it focuses on what happens here and now.

Answer:

As death and re-birth are central to Buddhist practices there is a considerable amount of material on the process of dieing and the stages leading to re-birth. The Tibetan "Book of the Dead" is instructive in these matters

What are Buddhist death rituals?

Buddhist death rituals vary in different cultures. The concept that informs various rituals is that of compassion. Tibetan and Indian Buddhists practice sky burials, in which the body is cut up and fed to vultures, as it is helpful to the vultures, and after death there is no significance to the body. At the time of death it is thought to be helpful to encourage the dying person ot have a peaceful frame of mind, and to be familiar with the transformations they are about to go through on the path to rebirth. Another Answer: Usually there are no strict death rituals in Sri Lanka,bcz after the death your body is not significant.You can take your funeral as you wish.But usually Buddhist monks will come to your home and chant Budda's Dhamma(Teachings).
