Can you explain how the lives of Veerabhadra and Gauri were connected due to their past-life karma?

The story of Veerabhadra and Gauri is a profound example of how karma connects individuals across lifetimes. As explained in Chapter 47, Veerabhadra was the reincarnation of a greedy, wealthy man, and Gauri was his pious wife from that previous life. After their deaths, they were reborn into different circumstances—he into poverty and she into a priest's family. Despite this, their past karmic link drew them together. Gauri's father couldn't find a match for her, but Baba prophesied that her groom would come to her on his own. Sure enough, Veerabhadra, while wandering, arrived at her house by fate. Baba then facilitated their union, showing how their marriage was the fruition of their Prarabdha Karma, destined to be experienced together.
