Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 OM AMRITESWARAI NAMAH IMMORTAL LIGHT - Married Life Duty and spiritual practices are both important The husband and wife should not hinder each other on the spiritual path. One should not give up spiritual pursuits even if it is not approved by the spouse. Yet it is also wrong to turn away from our duty in the name of spiritual practice. Mother has seen many people doing this; it is never right. When it is time to perform our tasks, we should do them with the rememberance of God. If, instead, we sit for meditation at that time, there will not be any progress. We should not be a cause of pain to the spouse who is against our sadhana. Insead, while performing the family duties, pray to God to bring a change in the mind of our spouse. :: >From the book of Immortal Light - Advice to Householders (english translation of the original Malayalam "Amrita Jyoti") Amma Sharanam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
