How Can I Find a Life-partner Who Will Support Me on My Spiritual Journey?

[Shri Bharath Krishna asked:: Swamiji, these days even school kids are falling in love! We humans often find a special quality in someone and fall in love being totally unaware of their negative qualities. This happened to me. I have thought that my parents will never know about me completely. They don't even know that I am learning this knowledge from you! So, how will they be able to find a right life partner for me? So, I should search by myself. I have tried this approach and its a total failure I guess (Before receiving this divine knowledge). I have suffered a lot because of that. In fact, that suffering lead me to you. Now I can't believe in my parents and also in my ability to find right partner who will support me in this spiritual journey. In such case how do we trust someone and marry? It's very scary. Also I heard that whom we marry is already fixed. Is that true? I have discussed with my other fellow devotees regarding this issue and they told that they don't even think about marriage anywhere soon because thats a huge responsibility. They told It's better to delay marriage as much as possible so that we participate in your service. So, I want to know from you when is the right age to marry and who can we trust in finding the right life partner? I don't even have a job. I am just curious to know swamiji. You have played such a big drama in my life so as to put me in right direction. It was very painful but thank you so much because without all that experience I could have never understood your knowledge at least to the extent I am able to understand it now. Yes swamiji, that's all for now! Sorry if I have asked too many questions. Padabhivandanam Swamiji]

Swami replied: God will certainly help you in finding a suitable life partner if you have such desire in the spiritual line. This is the greatest concept of life partner, who will assist you in your spiritual effort. There can be nothing better than this line of thinking regarding a life partner because that is the most important aspect of any human life, which unfortunately is realised in the end of life only. If this concept comes in young age, such a soul is having lot of spiritual scent in the previous birth that continued into this birth immediately. Extension of humanity through marriage is also holy service to God. Earning livelihood is the most important basis before marriage unless you have some backside support.
