Description

Acharya Prashant addresses the common perception that he is against marriage, clarifying that his concern is not with the institution itself but with the lack of maturity and self-awareness in the individuals entering it. He observes that in Indian society, young people are often pressured into marriage at ages like twenty-two or twenty-five, a stage where they neither understand themselves nor the complexities of life. He argues that many enter marriage driven by biological impulses and societal expectations, often viewing the wedding day as a fleeting moment of grandeur without realizing the lifelong legal and emotional bondage that follows. He emphasizes that when individuals do not know themselves, their decisions are bound to lead to suffering.
