[Ms. Laxmi Thrylokya asked: Swami, we get to see some forced marriages especially in places where human rights are violated extremely. They forcibly perform the ritual and claim to be wedded. In the eyes of God, when are a couple considered to be married? Kindly enlighten us.]
Swami Replied:- Whatever you have mentioned is not real marriage. They are exploiting the name of God. Unless, both dedicate their minds to each other, marriage is not at all performed. Rukmini refused such marriage and ran away with God Krishna opposing her parents and brothers.
