Question
from the audience:
I used to work at a beer bar. Since I am not beautiful, I was not asked to
sit and drink with the customers. Instead, the manager had me wash
glasses. I worked there for a mere 27 days before something miraculous happened to me.
On that day, while I was washing glasses, a
foreigner who did not plan to visit the bar, stopped by the restroom. And that
is how we accidentally met. On the second day he came to visit me and on the
third day we decided to get married. We
had two wedding ceremonies, according to the customs of both our religions. We
are now in our eighth year together, all without quarrels.
My husband is a good man. He does not drink or smoke, and he loves to
see me make merit. In particular, he
always tells me that he loves me very much and that he loved me at first
sight. I believe we met and married
because of a predefined destiny. Is it correct? How did we make merit together
in our previous lifetimes? The words,
“love at first sight,” come from merit accumulation. Is it correct? If it is correct, how so? Does
it occur in the same way for each couple?
">">
">Answer:
You met him and then got married because you
and your husband had been married and made merit together in your previous
lifetimes. This is why your husband
loved you at first sight.
">">
">Being
a couple comes from two causes:
1. Having been a couple and
making merit together in the previous lifetime
2. Helping and supporting each
other in the present lifetime
">Similar
to a lotus that grows by water and mud, you and your husband should be best
friends and support each other. Then,
you and your husband will able to make merit and pursue the perfections until
you have reached the goal (in life).
