Gurudev, is taking a divorce a hindrance on the spiritual path? I am very upset with my life since I got married.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: See, give your hundred percent. If your marriage works that is good. If it doesn't work, if both of you are miserable and there is not even an iota of joy there, then there is no point in hanging onto such a state of misery. Then amicably both of you should tell each other, ‘You have your way and we will still be friends’.
As I said, don't take a decision with any up-surging emotion. From a calm and collected mind think and see what you want.
