With an alarming rise in the number of divorces is marriage necessary? Doesn’t it add baggage to love?

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:

See, marriage is an important institution. Even to ask this question, somebody got married and that is why you are here. Isn’t it?
I think you will see that you need some stability in life at some point of time. And marriage is a very sacred institution. We must have that. Growing in marriage is growing in responsibility. And love and responsibility go together.
