Marriage vs. Meditation: Navigating Life's Choices Beyond Superstitions

A Raja Yogi who is 29 years old is practicing meditation for past 3 years. His family is pressurizing him to get married, he personally feels as the judgement day is nearing he doesn't want to get married now.





His family as a cultural practice did ask God through a prayer whether he will get married or not. The answer was he will get married. In this case we must first understand this is like tossing a coin, if you do it for 100 times the probability of getting heads or tails is 50-50.


So we cannot take such cultural practices for deciding our life.


One should weigh pro's and cons for marriage and not superstitious methods.


This compelling conversation delves into the complex intersection of personal beliefs, family expectations, and cultural practices through the lens of a 29-year-old Raja Yogi. For the past three years, he has devoted himself to meditation, believing that his spiritual path takes precedence over marriage. However, familial pressure and a cultural practice involving a prayer lead to a pivotal decision-making moment.


The conversation scrutinizes the reliability of such superstitious methods, comparing them to a coin toss where outcomes are essentially arbitrary. It challenges the idea of relying on external signs or rituals to dictate life choices. Instead, it encourages individuals to adopt a rational and pragmatic approach.


The dialogue advocates for weighing the pros and cons of marriage as a critical decision in one's life. It acknowledges the complexity of balancing personal aspirations with societal expectations. Listeners are invited to contemplate the significance of individual agency in shaping their destiny and making life-altering choices.
