Spiritual partners

A spiritual discourse on the challenge of finding a like-minded life partner.

"I cannot understand; there are so many spiritual partners sitting here, and still you do not find them. If you can find a spiritual partner, then find an unspiritual partner and make him spiritual."

"Spiritual people have a spiritual child. The children of spiritual parents are also very spiritual, if the parents educate them."

Swami Avatarpuri addresses the difficulty many face in finding a partner who shares a vegetarian, drug-free spiritual path. He offers two solutions: transforming a non-spiritual partner through one's own spiritual influence, akin to the paras stone turning iron to gold, or actively seeking an already spiritual partner. He humorously yet seriously suggests opening a matchmaking office for this purpose and emphasizes the spiritual benefits for future generations.

I cannot understand; there are so many spiritual partners sitting here, and still you do not find them. If you can find a spiritual partner, then find an unspiritual partner and make him spiritual. There exists a beautiful, precious stone called paras. When the paras touches a metal—iron—that iron changes into gold. So, if a person is not spiritual, through your satsaṅg, through your holy presence, that person will become good too. I know it is a big problem for many girls and boys because they wish to walk the spiritual path without taking any drugs and without eating dead bodies. I wish this for you. But nowadays, it is sometimes hard to find such a partner. I have suggested to you once, or many times, that someone should open an office to find a spiritual vegetarian partner. It would be very, very good. It is positive work, spiritual work, because you save many souls; you help many. There are many serious people, and though they are not in yoga, they are very spiritual and very pure, and they are also searching for a spiritual person. Spiritual people have a spiritual child. Spiritual people have a spiritual child. We used to say: in the egg of the peacock bird, you do not need to put color inside. The baby of the peacock is also colorful. The children of spiritual parents are also very spiritual, if the parents educate them. I wish that you will find a spiritual partner. And someone should really think about opening such an office. It is not bad. That is all I can tell you. Or you announce in some newspapers; many times people announce they are looking for a spiritual vegetarian partner. I will keep my eyes open to see if you can find one. It is good, no? This is not a joke. I am serious. Okay. Recording location: Slovenia, Skofja Loka, Weekend seminar
