Acharya Prashant addresses a police officer from Odisha who is about to get married despite feeling that it is not the right decision, driven primarily by a fear of loneliness. He explains that marriage is often used as a superficial escape from loneliness, but it cannot address the fundamental incompleteness of the ego. While marriage may provide social status, physical intimacy, family expansion, and domestic comforts like home-cooked meals and financial security, it fails to fill the inner void. He emphasizes that no person, whether a man or a woman, has the power to truly complete another or provide the spiritual fulfillment that comes from self-realization. He further critiques the societal motivations behind marriage, such as the desire for a protector, financial dependence, or the temporary thrill of being the center of attention during wedding festivities. He notes that many people use marriage to fulfill petty desires for respect, material gain, or to satisfy parental expectations. However, he warns that if the goal is to end loneliness, the marriage will inevitably be perceived as a failure because that goal is unattainable through another person. He concludes by advising that true relief from loneliness requires spiritual practice and the wisdom of saints, rather than just performing rituals like walking around a sacred fire.
