Respected swamiji, first of all i want to thank you for giving such wonderful speeches that can change our attitude to our lives. Today in our society love marriages are happening often. I beileve that we should always respect our parents and should not hurt their feelings. Still in some cases even if the boy is welleducatedand with good characters parents deny just because caste issues. I have seen many girls compelled to marry according to their parents wish just because of the caste issue. I have born in a forwad caste and my parents always keeps me reminding about the importance of marrying from our own caste. This is my doubt from childhood and now only i found a right person to ask this question. If a girl/boy is welleducated well settled and have good character is it important to deny their love just because they born in a different/low caste? Do you think this system is good?

In the Indian society, marriage is not typically between two individuals, it is between two families, two societies, two regions. Through a marriage a lot of people share their life and interact closely, unlike in the Western society. While compatibility between the man and the woman is primary, it is important that parents and family members feel comfortable with each other too. Otherwise, the husband and wife will eventually feel the strain of two non-compatible families on both ends and will create a distance. If you are willing to keep the families and their dislikes out of your life, you are free to marry anyone you love. Hari Om.
