00:00The problem is not the spouse. The problem is the unrealistic expectation we cultivate with respect
00:06to the institution of marriage. The thing is that if you are not joyful within, no man or woman can
00:12enter your life and turn you joyful. That's not going to happen. But then popular literature
00:16and romantic philosophy and the movies, they have led us to believe that irrespective of how rotten
00:23we are within, some magical person will enter our life and totally transform it. Now that cannot
00:29happen. Who does not know why the wife is not able to give him what he wants, comes to us and he says,
00:33this is my condition. I would ask him, is there anything that pleases you? Forget the wife. Before
00:38the wife came to you, you still had already lived for 25, 30 years. What was the quality of your life
00:45then? Were you better off? The person who enters into your life or your house does not come to raise
00:52you to divine possibilities. That person comes to you because you do not deserve to lead a single
00:57bachelor life.
