The real purpose of marriage is to get children.

[Guest guest]

The same thing, that if a girl is married to the husband, she must be always

engaged in the service of the husband. That will be appreciated. If she

says, "Sir, now we are married. You go home and I remain at home," there

will be no prayojana-siddhi. The real purpose of marriage is to get

children. Putrarthe kriyate bharya. So if the husband and wife simply love

within the mind and there is no action, there is no prayojana-siddhi.
