Gurudev, why doesn’t God give us some kind of visible indication of a suitable life partner, like smoke coming out from that person, etc.? Why do we have to invest our time and emotions in a person to find out?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

Well, I think the smoke comes afterwards! (Laughter) So first there is fire, and then the smoke comes later on. Someone who wants to be your partner may also want the same thing. So they too maybe are looking for a similar indication from your side. I suggest you better not be fuming when that happens (Laughter).
