00:00 If marriage is another name for beautiful companionship, marriage is wonderful.

00:04 But what matters is not the social institution of marriage, but the fact that you are with

00:10 someone and when you are with someone, the presence of that someone will necessarily

00:15 have an effect upon you and vice versa.

00:18 You must know the effect that the other's presence has upon you.

00:22 If someone's presence has a becoming effect on your mind, soothing effect on your mind,

00:27 illuminating effect on your mind, liberating effect on your mind, go ahead, only be with

00:32 that person or persons as much as you want to.

00:35 But be with them only as long as their effect upon you is liberating and be with them only

00:41 as long as you do not become dependent on them, neither do they become dependent on

00:47 you.

00:48 It has to be a mutually healthy relationship.
