Question: What is the importance of the marriage ceremony and what is its inner meaning?
Sri Chinmoy: The outer importance of the marriage ceremony is to share joy with others — with dear ones and well-wishers. The inner importance is to convince the outer mind that here on earth, where division reigns supreme, oneness can also play its role.
From:Sri Chinmoy,Ten divine secrets, Agni Press, 1987
