Essential Guidance for Marriage and Family Life : หน้า 23/216

Part One: Family Life 3. "Backup": We must have marriage guidance. Why? Because the beauty of the mind is so difficult to discern, we really need to speak with other wise people who have experienced married life. In other words, we need to have a teacher, or coach, who can advice us on marriage and family issues. A person who becomes our advisor must be ethical, observant, and have a great coach themselves! He or she is, in fact, a "pointer" in the right direction, mentor, and someone whose words we truly trust! 4. Meditation: We must meditate in order to purify our mind! Prior to marriage, it is ideal that we learn how to meditate to clear the impurities out of our mind, set worries aside, and ignore past conflicts. Meditation will foster peace within ourselves and our surroundings, and, in turn, whomever we encounter along the way. In finding a partner who also meditates, or is willing to learn meditation, we will only gain great strength and stability in our lives. Family Day By Day 21 Thoughts Before Starting A Family
