I read this in a book but interesting and worth the read.
Disciples asked guru the difference between love and marriage.
Guru asked a disciple to go to the garden of roses and asked him to bring the tallest plant of them with a constraint that he should not walk back in the same way he goes,which means he can go forward but cannot come back.The disciple returned empty handed telling his guru that, at first i saw a tall rose plant but i kept walking as i thought i may get still a taller plant.I found few taller plants too and i continue searching for the tallest.but after that i found only short plants and as i should not come back in the same way i couldnt get one.
Guru smiled and said this is love.
Now he asked him to go to a sunflower garden and asked him to get the beautiful flower with another condition that after plucking a flower he shouldnt pluck the second flower.
The disciple came with a flower,guru asked is this the beautiful of all in that garden? the disciple answered that there were lot of more beautiful flowers than this.But i dont want things to happen the way it happened with rose plant. so i found one in the initial search and came back as stipulated i should not pluck the second flower, i returned back with this.
Now guruji said this is marriage.....
Hope you understood....
