Vedic Marriage Concept--> Rosemary and ALL

[Guest guest]

Hi,

 

Thanks Rosemary.

 

People have detoriated a concept of Marriage.People

doesn't accutually know why they are marrying.Or Why

they are living.People in todays are very much

tensed,confused etc for there existence than anything

else in this world.Other's are living so do we are and

they pretend or try to live a way a other's are

living.

 

Actually when Nature or GOD creates a Man and

Woman,and existence of this LOVE theme was to reach

ultimatum or in other words to live a Fullest of

Mysterious Life.But rather than taking those effort

to understand what our ancestors have to say about it

and reason behind it.People seeing others and living

like others and pretending to be other,resulted

into,What you are seeing right now.So I will always

suggest everyone always aim for extreme or Spiritual

LOVE or start your step toward it.Today or Tommorrow

you will definately reach there.
