A wise wife or husband should not become a burden or hurdle in their beloved’s path. Any damage done to the Sadhana, will damage the relation itself.

Here, Priyavratha shows that even if worldly life can be managed perfectly well, ultimately you are here to merge with the Lord.

First chapter of fifth canto ends here. We will have a look at Priyavratha’s son Agneedhran next.
