Conscious Marriage


by Susan Kramer
 
 

Marriage a carriage
that can take us to the realization of our permanent home
In conscious marriage the couple are aware of this
as the ultimate goal of their life together
The conscious marriage is lived
each serving the other's best interests
above their own desires
in the highest form

When we serve another
out of care for their highest good
we are aligning with our soul
The greatest love is the purest love
free from desires for personal gain

Meditation each day
gives us control
over the ramblings of our mind
The mind becomes our servant
not us the mind's toy
As we practice meditation regularly
we begin to feel the inner peace
the lasting calmness
that allows us to think clearly
and analyze to act with right judgement

After meditating for some time
the calmness extends
throughout more and more of the regular day
till we can always turn
to that inward, calm, balanced state
at a moment's notice and need
Past the calmness
comes joy and bliss and full peace
We experience these transcendent feelings
more deeply
the more we practice meditation and right living
by listening to our conscience

When each mate spends time in meditation
and in acting rightly
in accordance with their developing conscience
their union parallels that of the Divine
Fully married
Inseparable
with the Highest aspect in themselves
and each other
