Acharya Prashant explains that marriage is rooted in two fundamental aspects: the natural physical attraction between genders and the higher spiritual goal of liberation. He notes that physical attraction is a universal, biological drive present in all living beings, from humans to insects, and is independent of one's social, economic, or intellectual status. This primal energy often drives human ambitions, such as the pursuit of wealth, beauty, or education, which are frequently used as tools to satisfy sexual desires. However, the sages recognized that while this attraction is an inescapable part of being embodied, a life dedicated solely to its fulfillment leads to a waste of limited time and energy, preventing one from attaining truth and liberation.
