hasunoha

is that true?

My husband passed away, and when I casually talked about whether I was able to meet my parents... I was told by S that you can't meet Buddhism until 3 years have passed, and if it's S, you can meet right away, so go in, but is that true?
I don't feel like getting into S, and I'm not denying S people. I think we can each follow the path we believe in. However, I was wondering if it was true, so I asked this question.

That's a big lie

Don't believe a word. I've never heard such stories from Buddhist universities, training schools, mentors, monks from other denominations of Hasunoha, or monks from the south. It's a dimensional story where one proof that they are the source of misleads in the world has been mentioned. Then, sending out important people like this, misleads people who have painful feelings, and makes them even more anxious... this is a dimensional story about the social evil of cults.
It's just a form of solicitation.

Gaining satisfaction by comparing is a troublesome business

I'm talking about whether the husband who passed away was able to meet his parents, but will your husband be able to meet his parents when you enter S? If it means you can meet your husband as soon as he is in S, then the logic is correct. Can S enroll people who have died? If it were possible, how would you recruit that person? I'd definitely like to ask and see.
People are free to decide what kind of religion they believe in, but how about saying that Buddhism is inferior by name? Buddhism explains that getting satisfaction by comparing is a work of suffering. I have run out of relationships with this world, and I think those who have passed away will go straight to the Pure Land.

It's not there.

Good evening, cat.
As Daijishi said, “You can't meet Buddhism until 3 years have passed” is a big lie.
I've never heard such a story either. I have never seen such a description in Buddhist scriptures (sutras).

In the first place, if a funeral was held in Buddhism (a monk belonging to a temple served as a mentor), the deceased became a disciple of the Buddha, and people (parents) who died earlier and became disciples of the Buddha have already met through the Buddha.

There's no need to worry.

I don't understand the reason or true intention of that person, but it's probably a form of solicitation to take advantage of the death of a close relative.
As you said, I don't deny it, but I think it's better to listen to it without talking to them.

I would like to pray for your husband's Refuku Bodhi and respond as an answer.
We clap hands.

It's fine

I read it. Under the guidance of the Buddha, we will soon be able to meet and rejoice at the reunion.
And they will continue to watch over their families and close people who are alive.
Please keep watching over us during the memorial service with all your heart.
