Bageshwar Dham Sarkar
What should I look for in a person when forming a lasting relationship or marriage?
Look at nature, not influence
In any bond, with a guru, friend or a prospective spouse, look at nature, not influence. A good, pure nature is given to the one on whom Thakur ji (God) is pleased.
And if an unmarried man is looking for a bride, do not look at her influence in that either; look only at her nature.
