THEY SAY RAGHUKUL REETI SADA CHALI AYI PRAN JAYE PAR VACHAN NA JAYE...SO WHAT ABOUT MARRIAGE VOWS DEAR...they aren't to be followed RIGHT?..My question is not against any version or questioning GOD'S will..but why let marriage appear futile ...why ?..I agreed Urmila herself freed him...but why ? DOES FREEDOM MEANS you forget vows...It's a men oriented world and a wife just follows whatever her husband does..I am a very ignorant worldly soul..I seriously do not understand GREATER GOOD AND ALL..But my question stays the same...VOWS ? have they to be diff for Wife and Brother...?
