Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Sunday described marriage as a sacred discipline that instils dharma, contrasting it with live-in relationships, which he said was driven by a blind imitation of Western culture.
“Marriage is a discipline which instills dharma.
Stay together when it is wanted and part ways when not wanted.
No responsibilities.
What is growing, look around the world,” he said.
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Sunday described marriage as a sacred discipline that instils dharma, contrasting it with live-in relationships, which he said was driven by a blind imitation of Western culture.
Speaking at an event on ‘contemporary motherhood’ organised by Vishwa Mangalya Sabha in Hyderabad, he also said Gen Z is imitative, emotional and does not think with a calm mind, and what comes across to them as genuine appeals.
“Marriage is a discipline which instills dharma. Its alternative is live-in relationship. Modernity. What are its consequences? We don’t want responsibilities but happiness. Stay together when it is wanted and part ways when not wanted. No responsibilities. What will grow with it? What is growing, look around the world,” he said.
