Marriage is Bondage—Love is Liberation: A Journey to True Freedom
Marriage is often seen as a societal necessity, while love is boundless and liberating, challenging us to differentiate between social constructs and eternal truths
Marriage is a legal and social institution serving order and stability, but love transcends rules, needing no validation from society or rituals
Marriage often binds with conditions, while love thrives in freedom, unmeasured by anniversaries or rings, as expressed by Rumi: "Let it be, and it stays forever"
Modern psychology reveals how loveless marriages can act as emotional prisons, whereas true love inspires growth, freedom, and self-expression
Radha and Krishna’s eternal bond shows that love transcends rituals; their connection was rooted in surrender and liberation, not possession or entitlement
When rooted in mutual love and freedom, marriage can align with spiritual growth, becoming a sacred partnership for practicing Dharma
ndian philosophy likens an ideal marriage to two birds on a tree—one engaged, the other observing—reflecting togetherness without possession
True love offers a taste of Moksha, where ego dissolves, time fades, and presence remains; saints like Mira Bai found liberation in divine love, not worldly ties
Marriage becomes bondage when love is absent, but when love flows freely, it can transform marriage into a space of mutual liberation and respect
Choose love as a state of the soul; whether married or not, let it be rooted in freedom and growth, making love a liberation, not a cage
