While self-realisation is an integral part of a human being's life, he must see to it he doesn't hurt others while he is at it. I personally know many people who have left their family behind to attain freedom from self. But is the act really worth it? I don't think so! IMHO, people who are highly philosophical should never marry. If they do, they should restrain themselves from taking such grave decisions. <BR/><BR/>Thanks a bunch for writing this! I am glad I read it.
