Rising to Higher Levels in Marriage:

 

 

" It is said that household attraction resides in the wife because sex is the

center of household life: yan maithunadi-grhamedhi-sukham hi tuccham [sB

7.9.45]. A materialistic person, making his wife the center of attraction,

works very hard day and night. His only enjoyment in material life is sexual

intercourse. Therefore karmis are attracted to women as friends or wives.

Indeed, they cannot work without sex. Under the circumstances the wife is

compared to a whirlwind, especially during her menstrual period. Those who

strictly follow the rules and regulations of householder life engage in sex

only once a month, at the end of the menstrual period. As one looks forward to

this opportunity, his eyes are overwhelmed by the beauty of his wife. "

Srimad Bhagavatam 5.13.4, Purport by Srila Prabhupada

We need to see that we may not even be on this level or standard in marriage.

Most marriages nowadays there is so much unrestricted sex. Even amongst those

married it is a limited number who actually have normal sexual relations while

others may be given to other unnatural acts. It is actually, then, the rare

few who even attempt to have sex only once a month as described here. We must

understand that most of the Srimad Bhagavatam is an advanced study of Bhakti

Yoga.

 

Just to rise to this level of having sex only once a month may take some work

especially if the couple is already married. If a couple is married already

then they need to work towards this understanding through the principles of

Dharma, Yoga, and Bhakti. Argument needs to be minimized to nil if possible in

marriage, but we can see that argument is common in marriage. Argument is a

communication issue and a married couple should try to see professional help to

avoid or reduce possible argument. The first place to look is the Sastra and

the Sanga or association of advanced devotees.

 

Similarly, those contemplating marriage should seek professional help if they

in truth are not prepared to have sex only once a month. Again professional

help begins with the Sastra and association or Sanga with advanced devotees.

Professional help needs to be as close to this standard as possible.

higher standard in the following of the Bhakti Yoga path.
