Question: I have lived as a brahmacari and now I want to marry. But the girl is 10 years older than me. My Guru is not allowing me to do this. Is it an offense if I still marry her?
Answer by Romapada Swami:
Srila Prabhupada’s purports highlight those important duties/decisions in life ‘being guided by a bona-fide spiritual master.’
As you have mentioned, you have received clear guidance from your spiritual master on this. If you have any questions or need clarifications, best is to approach your spiritual master in a humble, unchallenging mood and present your questions to understand better.
Also please refer to Digest 0085
