chủ nợ, oan gia trái chủ- karmic creditors, debtors

 chủ  nợ cũ tới đòi nợ

MY OWN EXPERIENCE TELLS ME THAT WHEN I SUFFERED THE PAIN DURING THE BOWING SESSION BECAUSE A LOT OF KARMIC CREDITORS CAME TO ME,

 

 I WAS GLAD TO PAY THEM BACK.

 

 And the following year, when I attended the bowing session again, I thought to myself that I hope all other KARMIC CREDITORS would come to me to CLAIM THE DEBT.


















Anyways, I WAS GLAD THAT THEY CAME TO CLAIM THE DEBT I OWED THEM WHILE I STILL HAD THE STRENGTH TO BEAR THE PAIN.


I WAS GLAD THAT THE KARMIC CREDITORS CAME TO CLAIM THE DEBT  I OWED THEM IN MANY PAST LIVES  WHILE I STILL CAN PAY THEM BACK.
