Insights on Dating and Wedding

It's a sensitive yet important question - is dating wrong? What is the perfect marriage?
Based on a beautiful experience during a programme in the Sai Kulwant hall and several discourse quotes from Sri Sathya Sai Baba, here are some insights.

[@anirudhdattatri]

Hey Aravind - you are helping not only Sai devotees but also all other spiritual seekers from different traditions including the wider Datta tradition. Thank you so much for you selfless service. May Swami always be in your heart and you in Him.

[@saistudent]

So happy to read that🙏🙏

[@mariedekeyser6388]

Dear Aravind, You should do this very satsang on every corner of the complete western world! Nearly no one has a clou about holy rules for a wedding at all over here. So,if I only respected you so much, I now bend my head to your greatness! Thank you holy Valentine for sharing your wisdom You are stronger then ever before to me.

[@madumathoory3695]

[@saistudent]

It is ONLY Swami's love and grace. Grateful for the opportunity to share.

[@devandranr]

Beautiful Satsang 🙏

[@seulidasgupta2953]

Indeed it’s very important lessons for modern generation, specially when they wanted to show how modern they are not knowing how important is a family bond. Thanks brother, I was happily married for 52 years and saw each other first in “Shuvo drishti”. We had faith in our parents and for me God. Jai Sairam. ❤️❤️❤️

[@saistudent]

Beautiful.

[@BayanOrumbayeva]

Wonderful satsang as always! Jay Sai Ram!

[@bookworm553003]

Sairam brother..much needed topic. My husband is a Sai student and I am a Balvikas Alumni. We both met with families just 5 days before the wedding after all the cards were printed, arrangements were finished and invites were sent. This was just a year ago. So if Swami organizes a wedding between His children, He will do it the traditional way. In my father's dream later, Swami came to dias and took wedding photos with us and our parents :)

I also request you to share Swami's massages on 'family institution' and meaning of being 'parent'...🙏🙏🙏

[@shainatamang7492]

Thank you so much for this video. Literally swami gave me a guidence through this video. Sai Ram.

[@parvathysukumar2954]

This is a must watch video for all . Brother, through out your video ,was able to see Swamis presence and blessings.Thank you so much Swami for showering your endless love on us 🙏🙏🙏

[@ncr1351]

Very well conceived & presented. It is of course need of the hour, we have been witnessing loads of divorces as well as pride of staying in living in kinds. Parents now days are of afraid of guidance against such acts cause they are also rightly worried of their old age situations & support. Thank you dear Arvind for a wonderful meaning full synopsis. Marriage institutions roles and responsibilities actually are to be discussed & be made available for people across to know of why how etc. Thank you.

[@renukaiyer1789]

Words of wisdom.

[@karthikn.r8905]

Nicely mentioned Brother. You given an insight which we are completely forgotten nowadays. And, the great thing is your humble credit to swami. It simply means swami blessings is with you.

[@nidhinak4074]

Sairam. Thank you for resharing this video.

[@shruthisalian9344]

Beautiful message brother Aravind!! 🙏🏻 Truly the Vedic system of marriage had the foundation of core value systems… duty, responsibility, respect and love.. The so called modern marriages mock the ancient system without understanding the underlying cultural reasons for a strong bond. Nowadays it’s more of a marriage of convenience and need with selfish motives… With Sai’s blessings anything is possible!! Sakala graha bala neene Sarasijaksha!! Jai Sai Ram 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@pooh6546]

Dear brother Arvind, thank you for the wonderful video, is there a way for potential brides and grooms from Sai family to meet each other or their parents to meet each other?

[@aarathi14]

Omg...only Swami can do this. I was so confused about marriage and I was asking Swami and praying to Swami to give me some guidance. And today I got notification for this video. Sai Ram.

[@saistudent]

Jai Sai Ram 🙏

[@shanthamechri58]

[@ramramanan8997]

BRILLIANT JOB OF COMMUNICATING A VERY IMPORTANT LIFE ISSUE

[@chennaipraveen]

Sairam brother Aravind ji...Thank you very much for message..Appreciate your time and effort in bringing all the pieces together. This message would be a guideline to all the youngsters looking to get married which would be either love or arranged marriage without any confusions and understand the purpose of marriage. Praying to Swami to be always with everyone of us and help us, guide us and save us.

[@RAkeepsmiling13]

Thankyou Swami 🫂 Om Shanti 🫂

[@anubasnet4330]

This video is all I needed today.Swami is primary and everything else is secondary. Thank you brother Arvind. Sai Ram 🕉🙏❤

[@ShriyaMishraPiano]

Sai Ram brother! You have addressed a pertinent and sensitive topic at an opportune time. Agree with your perspective on this issue - I am sure Swami’s blessings are with you ( and us ) on this introspective journey. Purity of thoughts has to vigilantly followed throughout life, for otherwise we are prone to go astray. But with Swami as the soulmate nothing else matters. May He inspire and instill that faith in our minds and the minds of the present day youth

[@poornimavocals6375]

Thank you so much brother for sharing this wonderfull words about marrage from swami sairam🙏

[@yogirajwagh9322]

SAI RAM Brother. Two things. I am hearing this discourse while I am on my way to Puttaparthi, its beautiful. All youngster should hear this. Clear message 🙏🙏

[@nataliejanewallace8376]

Thank you. Blessings

[@mariedekeyser6388]

Dear Swami, may humanity come to the understanding that impermanent beauty,the pleasures of the flesh or money, can not lead to permanent happiness. Only You can!

[@mariedekeyser6388]

Hearing this cristalclear satsang makes me so calm because the Real,Noble,Divine values are still in the running ! Over here,relationship mostly needs many prayers and Swami's grace to stop the harm and lost chances it brings by following the body-money-path.

[@banalasreedevi2207]

Excellent! Much needed message for both parents and marriage aged children. In present scenario all are confused . This satsang undoubtedly helps those who WANT TO FOLLOW BHAGAWANS MESSAGE. God bless bro. Aravind. Jai Sairam 🙏

[@mariedekeyser6388]

I have been an astrologer for many years as my work. My opinion about astrology was(and still is)that astrology can help to understand the behaviour or character from oneself or the other. Although!,one should never say:"I can't help,my planets are responsible for this or that..." With Swami one can always reach the best side of every planets influence! Always!

[@saistudent]

Perfectly said

[@vineethaudayasankar3560]

so true...and a beautiful insight shared by dear brother..sai sankalpa 🙏, madam i would like to get in touch with you sairam ,how can i

[@madumathoory3695]

I really believe very nice sharing beautiful God comes as a truth in all yes swami is my best in all i do can it be marriage or anything swami helps us all n always if we seek swami in all lovely n true tq so much for sharing a beautiful Sai ram to u love n blessings from swami always to u omsrisairam om shanti 3 om tc n tq

[@myhoneybucket]

Sai ram Annayya, such a wonderful Satsang and it is indeed extremely useful to everyone to lead a decent life and a life full of devotion to Swami. Forgetting Swami is like forgetting one’s own breath. Keeping Him in everything we do is one way we can practice in always remembering Him in today’s fast moving world. Often I hear the modern slogan “I like her, she like me.. that is enough”… My advise to them then would always be “if you are an orphan then it’s ok for you to think like that. If not, then what about your parents who have alway kept you in the centre of their thoughts all this years..? Disappointing them is like disappointing God.” Thanks to you in million ways for creating an invisible but close connection to Swami through your beautiful Satsang, Annayya Jai sai ram Simirthi 🙏🏻

[@kumarv7891]

33:22 second.....perfect message ...I just broke down

[@lalithaviswanathan64]

Brother Aravind , Hats off to you for this presentation , a painstaking effort on a delicate and trending subject , Iam sure it was our Lord who has Prodded you to choose this topic . It’s indeed a video our young adults should watch . May our Belly bed Bhagawan be with you always and teach us lessons thru your videos

[@udayabhanumuralikrishnabad4038]

Aum Sri Sai Ram ❤️... I too come across your position... With some of our youth ( sssss)... I hope... This video 😊🙏👍 may guide them proper way... Sri Swami will guide them... In proper direction... Thanks for making this video... Sri SWAMI'S GRACE, LOVE ❤️ and BLESSINGS OF will shower 🚿🤚✋ on entire team involved in making this video... Jai Sai Ram ❤️👍😊...

[@Radhakrishna26734]

Sairam brother Aravind.🙏 Wonderful Sathsang!!!Great to hear. Learnt so.much from this episode. Very lively presentation. In my humble opinion, Swami prompted another insightful thought for the Group photo session. After all, the Drama called life happens as per the law of Karma.He is the Karmaphala pradata. When the Drama ends..then there exists no wife...no husband. When one realises this truth, then one 'detaches' himself or herself from the role and attaches to the God as He showed in this Group photo session. Also, Swami had shown that though Wife and husband together share and enjoy the aspects of Dharma Ardha and Kaama, when it comes to God's Grace and Moksham(4th purushardham) it all depends on their respective Sadhanas and nothingelse. 😊🙏
