Sometimes it is said that the only order of the guru one may deny is the

order to marry. Examples of mahajanas who thus denied guru-ajna were the

Kumaras and Bhisma. However, there is also the example of Priyavrata who

accepted a mahajana's order to marry, against his own desire. Is there any

authoritative statement (i.e. sastra or acarya) that one may deny the guru's

order to marry?
