Love Marriage With Same Goals or Arrange Marriage With Parents Choice Which Is Best🤔?

Either ways one has to work through the difficulties of human nature and the challenges posed by the ego and desire self… There is no ready-to-eat free lunch as the saying goes. So the law of evolution, sacrifice and mutual respect is as much required in love marriage as in an arranged one. The rush of vital attraction that unfortunately goes by the name of love does not last long and after it has served the purpose of drawing two people together, it usually retires into the background leaving them with their inner resources to work out the marriage.. The advantage of ‘love marriage’ is that it allows variation by giving a wider option and hence Nature seems to prefer it now since it permits better chances of evolution. Arranged marriage, on the other hand poses less challenges as it allows the basic comfort zones to continue.

A vision in a dream is more difficult to distinguish from a vivid dream-experience but one gets to feel the difference”- from Letters of Yoga. Alok Da, can you please explain the last line written by Sri Aurobindo? 🌄

A vivid dream experience is generally of a symbolic nature that reveals a deeper truth through the sign language of dreams. A vision, on the other hand is an…
