Marriage



Marriage is an altar to the sacred and spiritual power of love. Marriage is the highest form of human expression toward the commitment to love that we are capable of expressing, both publicly and privately. Marriage is an affirmation of hope for a future
made strong by the binding together of two beating hearts.

Marriage is a vessel crafted for the sole purpose of containing the energy of love from two separate sources. There are times when the power of love is so strong we doubt our ability to contain it and so we look to marriage to define what we know to be the most profound and exquisite sensation that flows from our physical bodies. Love is the magic wand each of us is capable of wielding in every possible circumstance; for any situation in need of improvement, more love is always the answer.

Love is a teacher, a mentor, a spiritual journey, a physical sensation , a chemical response condition, and above all, love is the healer of all wounds. There is no disease known to humanity that cannot be eased through the compress of more love and compassion. There is no betrayal that cannot be forgiven by the cracking further open of a loving heart. Love is not the opposite of hate, but the flip side of darkness, for love is truly the divine source of light that illuminates the path of each of our individual journeys.

Love has no ego and there are no rules to love. It goes where it goes and it is not the purpose of marriage to define it by rules and boundaries or by “thou shall and thou shalt not.” Love is not proud, love is simply the magic wand that each and every one of us was gifted with when we incarnated. Love is the superpower of the superhero that dwells in each of us, capable of overcoming every possible mistake that we in our humanity are continually humbled by.

Truly love is kind, and may it be the lesson of each of our lives to learn to share our super-human power of loving kindness with all living beings.

Om Shanti,
Namaste`,
