An ignorant person is a dangerous thing, made even more dangerous by a relationship. An ignorant person, even if he is walking alone on a road, is a dangerous thing. What if you bring that person to your bedroom? How does it matter? You start calling him your husband or wife. He has remained equally ignorant. Or, does wedding change things so much? It doesn't. Very stupidly you can go round and round the fire, how will that change anything within?

Questioner: Namaste. I'm very grateful to be here. Nice to see you today. As relationships and being in conflict within yourself of ‘what is right?’ And ‘what is wrong?’ So, usually when I talk these days, I feel there's nothing right or wrong. It's a perception of an individual, how he or she sees a given situation.
I have had a tough journey in my life, where I have done a lot of right in my perception, and received a lot of wrong in my perception. So today, when I look back, I really feel, "Jo hamaare mummy-papa hamein sikhate the, ya school mein padhaya jaata tha moral science lesson. Ya hamein sikhaya jaata tha ki aap achchha karoge, aapke saath achchha hoga.” I don't think it really works. I'm at a stage where I really doubt. This does not work. So, today I feel that everybody's purpose is different. There, I have heard the word, "journey," is different. Their pace is different.
So, in relationships there are two people. It can be mother–father, it can be brother–sister, it can be husband–wife, it can be any. There are two people walking at their own pace. One thinks differently, the other one thinks differently. How do you come to a common standpoint without saying right or wrong? Without looking at the other person in a manner that he or she is any less or more, and treating the other person equal, fulfilling each other, as we call as filling each other's bucket, and living a purposeful life, and getting along at a mediocre level? For example, we all cannot be you. We all can be behind you maybe, and that's why we are here and you're there. How do we live a life which is just fine? Which is just fine. That is my question to you. Thank you.
