[PureInsight.org] I believe that marriage is destined by heaven, but I don’t know who decided it for me. I just know to leave it to fate.
One day after my wedding, I wondered what kind of fate it was that allowed us to become husband and wife in the Dharma Ending Age. I fell asleep soon after.
In my dream, I came to an ancient battlefield. I was a general who had already abandoned his armor and helmet and fled with other soldiers in the rout. My clothes were no different from those of ordinary soldiers. I had lost my warhorse and was running while looking back at the cavalry chasing me.
At this time, along with the shouts and screams, a general dressed like a Mongolian came with a helmet, riding a horse and swinging a broadsword at my head. I turned around quickly and instinctively swung my sword to block it.
I remembered my mood clearly in my dream, and I knew I would die.
"Father King, don't kill him," a girl's voice appeared, decisive and firm. In an instant, the Mongolian-dressed general heard his daughter's words, and hurriedly retracted the broadsword that was about to chop my head. Without a trace of hesitation or pause, he continued to chase the rout in front. In the dream, I only heard her voice, but did not see the image of the general's daughter. At that time, I was very excited and full of grateful. Life and death were reversed in an instant, and I could not repay the woman's life-saving grace.
Standing on the empty battlefield, with my hands on the sword, tears in my eyes, I looked up to the sky and made a wish: "I must marry this girl!"
Then I woke up from the dream, and my heart was uneasy. I knew that it was my own thought that determined our marriage.
The enlightened beings outside the three realms can create the universe and heaven and earth with one thought; in the mortal world, my one thought determines my yin and yang (marriage).
Sigh: A fortune teller told her that we two are "seven lives of marriage", but I didn't dare to believe it at the time. Now I know by chance that I have indeed reincarnated more than seven times to fight as warriors. But I don't dare to believe the saying of "seven lives of marriage". Now looking back, because that my wish was too strong, the vow lacked the necessary praying elements, and had a few more elements of wanting, which makes me scared. "Seven Lifetimes of Marriage" may really work.
In the dream, I felt that her Father King was her father in this life. He was 100% in favor of our marriage. This father-in-law is worth mentioning. He let me know what it is like to be a person without jealousy, which helped me a lot.
One day, he was chopping wood in the yard. He had two sons, one was lying on the bed in the left room reading a novel, and the other was lying in the right room watching TV! They could see each other inside and outside the house. I rushed out to grab the axe to chop wood. The future father-in-law said no, and was afraid of chopping my feet, so he asked me to go into the house to watch TV.
This incident let me know what it is like to be a person without jealousy, and what it is like for a son to be in a home without jealousy.
