Changing The Attitude Of Your Spouse

(A lady shares her views) Swamiji, you ask us to be as we are. But how can we live in society just as we are? I think we have to change according to the family, the society.)

Yes, everybody faces this problem on a practical level. You say, “Swamiji, I have to act according to the other." I ask you, why not also make sure that others act according to you? True, in society, we have to be dependent on each other. There is no other way. But be very clear of your limits.

Be independently dependent!

Be very clear, which is your space and which is the other"s. Try your best to enrich your own life, without disturbing one another.

Of course, I can"t give you a foolproof solution… if I could give you a chant that would solve all the problems between husband and wife, I would be the most popular man in the world!

(Loud laughter and applause!)

Swamiji…can"t the other person"s Muladhara chakra be opened, so that he drops his expectations?

(Swamiji laughs!) How will you do that? You can only make sure that your own expectations are dropped – so that from four people sharing one house, you at least come down to three!

How to change the other person...? These days marriage counselors suggest even hypnotism! I think it is gross interference in the other person"s freedom. It is completely wrong.
