LOVE AND MARRIED LIFE

Love is a great feeling and it is always unconditional. When a person is loved for the reason of that person’s beauty, intelligence, power et cetra, then it is not love in the real terms. It can be called attraction or infatuation et cetra. Love is an emotion where one thinks for the welfare of others only. Greatest harm has been done to this great emotion by the writers and poets by referring it to attraction between male and female as if, this emotion has one shade only.

Married life presents a great platform for development of this emotion by giving an opportunity to behave with elders and other members of the society and by bestowing a responsibility to produce quality offsprings. This emotion gets enhanced when the couple enjoys happiness together, contributes in the making something together and faces different hurdles or pains together. This emotion does not develop further when partners of the married life go on changing. There is a particular sanskaar for the development of the bondage between the couple to enable them to achieve their goal or purpose of life.
