197 Can Our Relatives in Heaven Help Us?

Monks in the Morning from Colombo Dhamma Friends

When we collect good karma by practicing the Buddha’s instructions, we will often share merit with heavenly beings. And we may even have the wish that all heavenly beings protect the Dhamma and those who practice the Dhamma. Well one of you was curious if when our relatives are born in the heavenly worlds they can come back and help us in this life. So I invited one of the venerable monks to give an answer. I think you’ll be really interested in what he shares with us.
