Acharya Prashant addresses a man who feels incompatible with his superstitious wife after three years of marriage and is considering divorce or total self-transformation. Acharya Prashant points out that the speaker himself was not significantly different or wiser when he entered the marriage at age twenty-five. He suggests that the speaker's recent exposure to spiritual teachings and wisdom has created this perceived gap, as the initial physical attraction has faded. He rejects the binary choice of divorce or submission, proposing a third path based on responsibility and compassion. Acharya Prashant explains that true separation involves transforming the self that made the wrong connection in the first place. He emphasizes that if one does not change their internal tendency to form wrong relationships, they will simply repeat the same mistake with someone else. He advises the speaker to take responsibility for bringing the same light of wisdom to his wife that he has received. He argues that it is inhumane to abandon those who were part of one's life during periods of ignorance once one attains a level of awakening. He further explains that awakening should naturally bring compassion. If the speaker sees his wife is in the 'darkness' of superstition, he must make a sincere, patient, and persistent effort to help her grow. Acharya Prashant reminds the speaker that he too was recently in a similar state of ignorance and only changed because of the compassion of others. He concludes that only after an honest and exhaustive effort to help the partner has failed should one consider other options, but the primary duty is to attempt to transform the relationship through mutual growth.
