Premanand Maharaj Ji
Should I choose the householder life or renunciation?
Householder life reaches the same goal
There are two paths, virakti (renunciation) and grihastha (householder life). The path of a sadhu is very hard, so choose with thought. A householder who lives with restraint, serves all and keeps the Name on the lips reaches the same goal as a mahatma.
As a householder, marry, live with restraint, earn plenty of wealth, serve everyone, and keep the Name on your lips; you will reach the same goal that a mahatma reaches.
