Premanand Maharaj Ekantik Vartalaap: Finding a suitable life partner has grown more difficult in the modern world. With fast-paced lifestyles, shifting values, and a culture that frequently prioritises superficial attraction, many young people, especially women, find themselves unsure of how to pick the right partner for marriage. During an episode of Ekantik Vartalap, a young lady asked the esteemed spiritual Guru Premanand Ji Maharaj, amid this uncertainty, "What qualities should one look for in a man to ensure a peaceful, balanced and spiritually fulfilling married life?"
Maharaj Ji's response was insightful and based on profound spiritual knowledge. He first underlined that one must work to become pure before looking for a morally upright life partner. "It is impossible to want a pure partner if we are impure," he clarified. He asserts that in order to find the right person and to become the right person, one must possess inner purity, moral integrity and spiritual discipline.

In the same way that Goddess Sita prayed to Goddess Gauri for a husband of noble qualities, Maharaj Ji urged the lady to sincerely pray to God. He told a beautiful story of how Maa Sita's devotion brought her divine grace and her ideal life partner, Lord Ram. He suggested that young women look for a life partner who can live a life of dharma with them—someone who is Sushil (virtuous), Sajjan (gentle) and Sayyami (disciplined). "Ask God for a Sundar (handsome in character), Sushil (well-natured) husband and by God's grace and Maa Gauri's blessings, you will find him in the vast creation," he said in the end.
Maharaj Ji's teachings are a timeless reminder that genuine compatibility is based on spiritual alignment and shared virtues rather than just outward appearances.
