"Human Life’s Precious Opportunity: Embracing Marriage for Spiritual Growth and Divine Service"

In the purport of verse 3.14.19 in Srimad Bhagavatam, Srila Prabhupada explains nicely that, ‘Marriage is actually a duty performed in mutual cooperation as directed in the authoritative scriptures for spiritual advancement. Therefore marriage is essential in order to avoid the life of cats and dogs, who are not meant for spiritual enlightenment’.

Out of eight million four hundred thousand types of birth, human life is the only chance where we can realise our original position and endeavour for spiritual development . May we remember this always and use this valuable chance given to us completely in the service of Lord and His devotees.
