MARRIAGE? Is it essential or optional?

what is the ancient civilized custom (sanskara) that is binding the social spectrum of humanity?

• MARRIAGE.  The institution of a family is dependent on that of marriage. Hence, the social laws influence the  marriage,which is one of the important of 16 sanskaras. 

How many types of marriage are there in Hindu civilization?

• three types of marriages as per Hindu scriptures. 

Panigrahan: The groom should hold the bride’s hand, to accept her as his wife. 

Upayam: Going close to the bride or accepting her.

Parinay: Holding the bride’s hand and circumambulating the fire.

What are  the main functions of marriage system? why  one should marry?

• Marriages  liberate oneself from the debt to God and one’s ancestors.  Rituals in marriage are associated with procreation which is essential to achieve liberation from these debts.
• Marriage controls the impetuous behaviour of women and men, which is detrimental to society.
• Marriage defines the responsibilities towards family, relatives & society and so, the man&wife  cannot behave erratically according to their selfish needs.
• marriage regulates and controls  sexual erratic behavior  of humans. man is social animal. mankind  has basic instincts. taming and regulating the instincts with wisdom is for the welfare of humanity. marriage facilitates gradual conversion of  physical attachment   into emotional attachment and  then in to  love without expectation, that is, spiritual love (priti)  and at the end instinctual behavior including sexual desire markedly reduces. 
  At what age should a marriage be arranged? 
• as per spiritual science, for men, twenty-five to thirty years was the age group considered best for marriage.   In case of a girl too, the age range of twenty to twenty-five was considered as appropriate.   
• as per physiology, as  girls matures faster than a boys in both physical and psychological aspects. the boy should be older than the girl by four or five years.
• as per sociology, The ability to procreate is the highest in the age group of sixteen to eighteen years in a girl and eighteen to twenty-one years in a boy. To avoid over population, the law permits marriage of a woman  only after the age of eighteen and for a man  after twenty-one years of age. so, according to all the three sciences - Spirituality, psychology ,sociology and physiology, child marriage is absolutely wrong.

what is the The gotra (Lineage), pravar (Ancestral lineage) and the pinda? is there any importance of these to marriage system?

Gotra is the term used to denote the descendants of the eight Sages - Vishvamitra, Jamadagni, Bharadvaj, Goutam, Atri, Vasishtha, Kashyap and Agastya. There are millions of such gotras.

These gotras were divided into gans and the gans subdivided again into pakshas (groups), for example from Vasishtha gan were derived fourpakshas - Upamanyu, Parashar, Koundiny and Vasishtha. They have innumerable further subdivisions. Marriage within the gotra was prohibited.

 the word gotra represents learning (vidya), pravar is associated with a sect of karma. 

Pravar refers to the ancestors of the gotras. They are one, two, three or five in number.there are specific pravar sages for specific gotras. for example , Vasishtha, Maitravarun and Koundinya for Kundin gotra and Vasishtha, Bharadvasu and Indrapramad for Upamanyu gotra.

Pinda: ‘In order to avoid sexual promiscuity  in man who is generally  sexually oriented, the Vedic scriptures created the four classes (varnashramdharma) based on the qualities (gunas) and actions (karma) and later established the code of marriage to prevent the generation of interclass progeny (varnasankar). 

It was decided that with the exclusion of the fifth and the seventh generation, a man should accept as a bride (Panigrahan) a girl of the same class but of a different gotra  and different lineage (asapinda). As the term sapinda is extremely important in the scriptures its description is essential.

so,one should marry in same class but in different gotra and different  lineage(asapinda).

• Deciding upon a suitable match by matching the horoscope is only a popular custom, and is not prescribed by the scriptures.

• An identical sub-division of the lunar asterism (nadi) is prohibited: as  their ability to procreate is reduced.

• Consanguineous marriage is  prohibited  by the scriptures. 

10 Shades of Indian Secularism

 1 ) In India, with 80% Hindu population, and the only homeland of Hindus in the world, the birthdays of great sons of the soil, Shri Ram and Shri Krishna, are not compulsory central government  holidays, while the birthday of Saudi Arabia born prophet Mohammad and both the birth and crucification day of Bethlehem born Jesus, are compulsory holidays throughout India. This seems in sync with the secular hypothesis that Ram and Krishna are imaginary comic characters while Mohammad and Jesus are actual historical characters. There are only 2 Hindu holidays out of compulsory 14, in contrast with 4 Muslim ones.

2) The Constitution of India enables the government to take control of Hindu temples and trusts and appoint its nominees in their controlling body and even control its funds. The government doesn't have this privilege for the mosques or churches. The government cannot interfere in the functioning of the mosques, madarsas and any minority institutions even if they receive government aid, which is taxpayers' money. The minority institutions are not bound to comply with the Right to Education act either. This can be seen as a lighter version of Pakistan and Bangladesh's enemy property laws which enable their governments to confiscate the propeties of Hindus by declaring them enemy properties.

3) Everyone knows that India doesn't have uniform civil code. Indian muslim males are legally allowed to have up to 4 wives at a time, and can divorce them by saying 'Talaaq' thrice, in compliance with Sharia. Hindus and Christians have to follow proper court procedures to file for divorce. The women right activists who organise 'slut-walks' to celebrate their 'rights' and advocate girls visiting pubs, do not speak on this matter. Shah Bano case stands as a glaring example of how secularism is a constitutionally prescribed drug meant only for Hindus, not for minorities.

4) Prayagraj, one of the holiest pilgrimages of Hindus, is called Allah-abad. Kashi, Ayodhya and Mathura, each of these 3 holy sites has been desecrated and yet not fully restored. The signboards of Auragzeb road in Delhi stand as the testimony to India's slavery that Indian secularism celebrates so profusely. In 2007, over 1 lakh Indian muslims paid homage to Aurangzeb's tomb on his 300th anniversary, that's when Aurangzeb is known to be the perpetrator of the largest Hindu genocide ever. Aurangzeb had even got Guru Teg Bahadur beheaded in his court for his refusal to convert to Islam.

5) An instance of Indian secularism is the 1978 directive to NCERT which instructs it to erase all medieval history which paints a picture of clash between native Hindus and invading muslims in that era. Consequently, we have a chapter each from Akbar to Aurangzeb, but Shivaji and Maharana Pratap are squeezed into a paragraph each inhistory books. Despite all the evidence to the contrary, discredited Aryan Invasion Theory is still taught in Indian schools. The history books do not cover the Mahabharata despite a plethora of archaeological evidence available to conclusively establish its historicity.

6) The Archealogical Survey of India in its annual report of 1924-25 published a long list of Hindu temples demolished during Islamic rule. Sita Ram Goel, Arun Shourie and others have published a book after conducting research and they've given a 64 page long district-wise list of Islamic monuments which were constructed by demolishing Hindu temples. This list, in the book, "Hindu temples - what happened to them", includes around 2000+ temples and gives in most cases, the year of construction of those structures also. Even in Kashmir, hundreds of temples, small and large have been desecrated over during the exodus of Hindus in early 90s. The same, however, is a non-issue in larger secular polity. It's continued unabated in whichever time or space, Hindus have become weak.

7) From Ram Mandir to Ram Setu and to Bhagwad Geeta, all have been dragged into Indian courts. India is the only country in the world where the faith of 100 Crore people is humiliated. It'd be silly to look for parallels where in a Muslim majority country, Quran or the prophet, or in a Christian majority country, Bible or the Christ, could be dragged into a court of law. In India, the central government filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court suggesting that Ram never existed. In the same country, Christian missionaries openly preach about Hindus' false and 'characterless' gods, and so do Islamic missionaries like Zakir Naik, but the tag of 'hate-monger' has been attributed to Hindu right wing by secular luminaries in media and otherwise.

8) There are numerous government schemes which are run exclusively for the benefit of minorities at the expense of taxpayer money, despite an apparent prohibition to the same in the constitution. Pashchim Banga government paying monthly stipend to all the Imams of all the mosques in the state is a glaring example of this. The same is not extended to Hindu pujaris. The Haj subsidy, against which the Supreme Court finally ordered, which had been running since Independence even when no other country, not even Pakistan offers it, is another example.

9) The pious Human Right Activists, known for their love for Jihadi terrorists, those who have been running

 for years now, have not spoken for the inhumane treatment meted out to Sadhvi Pragya, and Swami Aseemanand. Their love for those displaced in Gujarat riots, their sympathy on crores of Bangladeshi infiltrators and their disgusting silence and aversion on lakhs of Kashmiri Hindu refugees and Pakistani Hindu  refugees is another jewel of the muddled waters of Indian secularism.

10) The practice of Saraswati Vandana has been discontinued from almost all government events with the rise of secular fanaticism. The TV series Chanakya of 90's was asked to remove Saffron flags from it, its being indispensable to the picturaization of Chanakya's Akhand Bharat notwithstanding. Doordarshan's 'Satyam Shivam Sundaram' had also been removed before being brought back. Off late, even the practice of lighting a lamp has been criticised as 'unislamic'. A litigation was filed in Gujarat high court for inaugurating a room by breaking a coconut for its being a Hindu (not Secular). A case was lodged in Chennai High Court to prohibit the employees celebrating festivals in office space. The beast of secular fanaticism has gone wilder over the years, and if not us, posterity will have to bear the brunt of our callous ignorance. Source:IBTL

We're becoming 2nd class citizens in our own country. The likes of Digvijay Singh having the gumption of saying that the riots in Assam were because of 'Hindu infiltrators'.

Not one word of protest on the racial riots there, WHY- because it's a Congress ruled state and NOT a BJP-Modi ruled State. Also not a word about the riots in Mumbai and Pune against students and others from the North East and the desecration of the Amar Jawan monument!
