She Was Already Married Before She Met Her Husband
Mirabai was four years old, by most accounts, when a wandering sadhu passed through her family's haveli in Merta, Rajasthan, carrying a small idol of Krishna. She asked her mother who the beautiful figure was. Her mother, half-joking, said: that is your husband. Mirabai took it literally. She spent the rest of her life proving she meant it.
