At last the day arrived in my life.. The blessing I got from Pondy.
To unite your physical existences and your material interests, to associate yourselves so as to face together the difficulties and successes, the defeats and victories of life- this is the very basis of marriage-but you know already that it does not suffice.To be united in feelings, to have the same tastes and the same aesthetic pleasures, to vibrate together in a common response to the same things, one by the other and one for the other-it is good; it is necessary-but it is not enough.
To be one in profound sentiments, your affection, your feelings of tenderness for each other not varying in spite of all the shocks of existence; withstanding wearinss, narrow limitations and disappointments, to be always and in every case most happy to be together; to find under all circumstances, one in the presence of the other, rest, peace and joy-it is good, it is very good, it is indispensable -but it is not enough.
To unite your mentalities, your thoughts harmonising and becoming complementary to each other, your preoccupations and intellectual discoveries shared between you; in a word, to realise your spheres of mental activity identical through a broadening and an enrichment acquired by the two at the same time- it is good, it is absolutely necessary- but it is not enough.
Beyond it all, at the bottom, at the centre, at the summit of the being, there is a Supreme Truth of the being, an Eternal Light independent of all circumstances of birth, of country, of environment, of education; the origin, cause and master of our spiritual development- it is this that gives a definite orientation to our existence; it is this that decides our destiny; it is in the consciousness of This that you should unite. To be one in aspiration and ascension, to advance with the same step on the spiritual path-such is the secret of a durable union.
