The curse called live-in relationships is ruining the cultural fabric of our country, it is time to put a stop to it
The Allahabad High Court in a recent observation came down heavily on the live-in relationships in the country in a case.
The hon’ble Court lambasted the live-in relationships as being responsible for undermining the cultural unity of our country.
The Court argued that live-in relationships is a negative import of the Western civilization and is threatening the very sanctity of Bharat.
In the light of these critical observations, it is necessary to understand how the concept of live-in is a blot on Indian culture.
What is Live-in?
Live-in refers to any relationship between man and a woman or between same-gender couples without marriage.
It is a distinct import of Western civilization. Live-in couples argue that marriage is but a legal contract which has no meaning whatsoever.
Live-in couples argue that marriage shackles individuals into a life-long commitment.
They argue that marriage is oppressive. But this line of thought is regressive, disgusting and dangerous.
Live-in is Anti-Bharat
The very idea of live-in is alien to Bharat. It isn’t in agreement with Bharatiya values.
Bharatiya or Indic values considers marriage or vivah to be a sacred institution, it regards marriage as a union not only of individuals but also of two families.
Indic values consider marriage to be a solid foundation for promoting respect for elders, respect for family and most importantly respect for your Indic culture.
But the idea of live-in is a disgusting manifestation of the debauchery prevalent in Western culture.
Live-in breaks families, makes both men and women vulnerable to mental and physical harm and may even lead to the loss of lives.
Example- Aftab Poonawala murdering his live-in partner Shraddha Walkar and literally vivsecting her body.
This shows that live-in is blantantly anti-Bharat.
Live-in is Anti-Hindu
Live-in relationships are also outrightly anti-Hindu. They do not conform to the basic norms of Hinduism.
Sanatan Dharma considers vivah to be a sacred bond. In the various holy scriptures and texts of Sanatan Dharma marriage is eulogised as a bond for generations.
But the very idea of live-in is a direct assault on the idea of Sanatan Dharma. It promotes the toxic principle of individualism that lives at the core of Western civilization.
Live-in relationships prefer the mantra- “I-me-myself”. It eats into the cultural vitals of our sanskriti, live-in individuals are typically woke people who consider Sanatan Dharma to be a ‘fiend’.
Live-in relationships also put in peril public morality and collective mass consciousness of how a society, especially Indian society should function.
What to do?
It is high time that parents keep a tab on the activity of their children and be aware and vigilant.
The sooner the curse called live-in relationships is removed from Bharatiya society, the better.
