Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 9.14.21
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
As stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.40) , yasya prabhā prabhavato jagad-aṇḍa-koṭi-koṭiṣv aśeṣa-vasudhādi-vibhūti-bhinnam. There are various planets and various atmospheres within this universe. The atmosphere of the heavenly planet from which Urvaśī descended after being cursed by Mitra and Varuṇa was different from the atmosphere of this earth. Indeed, the inhabitants of the heavenly planets are certainly far superior to the inhabitants of earth. Nonetheless, Urvaśī agreed to remain the consort of Purūravā, although she belonged to a superior community. A woman who finds a man with superior qualities may accept such a man as her husband. Similarly, if a man finds a woman who is from an inferior family but who has good qualities, he can accept such a brilliant wife, as advised by Śrī Cāṇakya Paṇḍita ( strī-ratnaṁ duṣkulād api ). The combination of male and female is worthwhile if the qualities of both are on an equal level.
- What 'lambs' come with the relationships I have entered or am considering?
- Am I prepared to protect them as part of loving the person?
