Danny, there were no dating clubs for sages those days ...... neither are there today, i.e., for sages.

But i agree that getting the leader's approval can be abused. They can mould you like plasticine in case they decide you are not Sahaj enough. i just do not agree that they wield so much power over SYs desirious of arranged marriage. Indiblonde's case brought home that message, one that we cannot ignore due to its nastiness, pettiness of issues amd the humiliation. Women should never be subject to that type of humilation and there should be checks and balances. Maybe they will start improving once they realize how abusive some 'leaders' are. > > How you can..could you..

They have no means of judging accurately, except comparing the biodata. And i would not want anyone to butter them for the sake of getting favourable marks. i think if parents are involved they will help bring forth a better match but that would mean delegating power. And the logistics of arranged marriage between different cultures and distances also hinder. It is no easy solution since there are so few SYs, compared to the general population, to facilitate that. Perhaps in future we can have a better method, choice and freedom to make this very importnat decision. And let's not forget checks and balances to root out abusive leaders. > > You are also insulting my parents who lived and loved each other > > through all the trials and tribulations, thanks to the inherent > > strength of their arranged marriage. > > God be with them.. > Gos is always withIN them.. > > You are also insulting my best friend whose son, a chemical > > engineer, was matched with an accountant just last month. > > Good luck to him..did he need any Leader aproval to get married? > Yes or NO???..did he get the marriage form to get married?..YES..or NO??

You are free to do what you want with your life. Please don't insist we start a dating club for SYs. If you meet someone at a puja and your parents agree it should be allowed. By this i mean both parents can meet and decide, provided both CONSENTING ADULTS agree. It is not that both are going out dating and dancing. It is not that there is lust in their eyes as some dry, puritan SYs hcondemn. If i look at a beautiful girl that does not mean i am lusting for her. Any self- realized soul will not have such thoughts and the natural chemistry cannot be suppressed (and i don't mean sexually). It is natural for young adults to go through this phase, and evolution has a strong influence. We just cannot deny nature. i do not seen any reason for any objections from the " marriage council " , if there is such a body, when such situations arise i.e., parents taking control in deciding the future of their children and help facilitate a better match. i am sure their wisdom and experience is better than that of the present 'marriage councils'. Maybe all these suggestions will be condemned but time is also on my side on this issue. If future, when Sahaja Yoga spreads and we have far more SYs, social progress will enforce more freedom. You just cannot stop such progress. And i always keep reminding that things will be different when Shri Mataji leaves. Just wait and see. regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
