This is great, thank you so much! (as received){Once upon a time, there was
a young couple, deeply in love. Their relationship was filled with passion,
trust, and understanding. However, as time passed, the man's ego began to
grow. He started to feel superior to his partner, and his love turned into
possessiveness and control.
The woman, feeling suffocated, tried to express her feelings, but the man
wouldn't listen. His ego had consumed him, and he believed he was right,
while she was wrong.
One day, the woman left, unable to take the toxic relationship anymore. The
man was devastated, realizing too late that his ego had destroyed their
love.Heartbroken, he wandered, searching for a way to revive their love. He met a wise old man who told him: "Love and ego cannot coexist. Ego is a poison that destroys love. To revive your love, you must let go of your ego." The man reflected on his actions and slowly began to release his ego. He learned to listen, understand, and empathize. Years later, the couple reunited, their love stronger and wiser. They had learned that true love requires humility, trust, and mutual respect. The story teaches us that ego can destroy even the deepest love. To nurture love, we must cultivate humility, empathy, and understanding.} KR: 1 In Love and war there are no principles; it means anyway it can be handled , fought or even surrendered. 2 Many divorces today is the soul (sole) cause of EGO. Especially women in prakriti is made up of gunas totally different from men; women having failed to adopt them or having forgotten, o did not remember, follow the men and fight; she is not vulgar as tirumular a sanyasi described to entice men into sanyasa; but 60000 wives of our friend Krishna said sanyasa is secondary and Vedas say sanyasi is dependent. He the sanyasi shall not tough agni. Women have all the AGNI with her. A brahmachari is as good as a sanyasi. A brahmachari,unless married , cannot get any kind of religious fulfilment actions at all without SAHA-DHARMINI. And the agni alone can feed the ageless, adding value to ususha the men. And without the women agni, brahmachari (from guru-patni or amma) cannot get food; and the sanyasi has to remain hungry and dead. Men cannot get his food also, without doing or incapable of doing yagna and rituals. So ANNAPOORANI IS SHE. As an independent agni she may do all but men is no where for world ethics at all. This nature if she had known, and by her technique of enticing, what a life she can have? Men's ego is reducible by her strategy; after all, usage of strategy is the diplomacy admitted. And with her charm, she enters as a friend, dasi, wife, minister, mother and head of the clan with shat gunas. Can any male hate his mother, daughter, sister and sister in law and aunt and niece? NO. Then why would do that against the wife? EGO plus1 and plussed by wife ego plus 1=2. Even the powerful emperor, is subdued before the wife, only if she adopted her MAYA # prakriti, Hence only I use to say that a man needs a woman in any manner; but the woman does not; as two women by latest medical advancements beget female children but that is not possible by men 2 Y . Hence in love and war , all are permitted; but strategy alone may win. EGOless. Hence Shakespeare said SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER.
