Dear Swamiji, I have only just started my spiritual journey and see you as my Guru. I try to surrender my all to God, as you say, but this is not easy. I am so used to the material world that sometimes even God seems like a stranger. I generally lead a content life with minimal attachments. But one repetitive thought bothers me and I am unable to break free from it. I am a 35 years old woman and unmarried. I feel left out and have a kind of yearning to be a wife and mother. I understand that I acquired this ‘need’ from the society we live in and misguided by movies and books – the need to find ‘true love’ (often confused for other base emotions) and have a happy family. I desperately want to break free from this feeling that I am somehow incomplete. What can I do to help myself? Is finding a (so-called) life partner that important?

Dear Sindhuji,
Please understand, our mind is simultaneously physical as well as spiritual.
Our mind, when it feels that “I am a man or a woman”, this deep thought creates desire for physical feelings.
In fact this feeling is more dormant in our psycho.
But when you actually materialise that feeling or wish, your mind will turn into spiritual and it will say “I would not have married and I think my decision was wrong” etc. This is the general nature of mind.
Don’t worry, hold on your practice ,engage the mind creatively, slowly the spiritual side will get strengthened .
HariOm!
