Hey there,
I am in an relationship with a very eager practitioner of Buddhism. Now my question ! Should my partner also listen to the statements of her master in regards of our relationship, as he says that we are not good for each other and that she will suffer a bad disease in the next couple of years in case we stay together.

Now she wants to take that one as reason to stop our relationship although we had a very deep partnership so far. Is it common that Masters interact in those kind of matters.

As for me it is a real struggle to understand those kind of things.

Hi funnysneezer and welcome,

I think I would need to have more details about this before presuming to give an opinion about someone I don't know.

You haven't said what kind of a Buddhist group your partner belongs to, or why she would be talking about her relationship with you to the teacher.

Are there any reasons why her teacher would say she might suffer a disease ? It seems like a very odd thing to say. I will try to make a guess until you provide more details....are you sleeping with other women for example?

Kind wishes

Aloka
