00:00If it is certain that there is no possibility of sex, would you ever marry?
00:05Then you know what you marry for.
00:06You can marry if you know no money is involved.
00:09You can marry if you know that the right caste is not involved.
00:13You can marry even if a lot of other desirable things are not in the picture.
00:19You will still somehow tolerate the marriage.
00:22But you cannot tolerate the marriage if there is no sex involved.
00:25When the law says that if there is no sex for a period of X months, then the couple
00:30is entitled to be divorced.
00:33You can be separated because there is no real action happening.
00:38Love is not so cheap that you will just get it the hormonal way, without doing anything,
00:43without putting in any effort, without earning it.
00:46Love has to be earned.
00:48And that's what all spiritual pursuit is about.
00:51Learning love.
00:52Learning love.
