Move ahead; Sarka Pude; Sarka Pude is a Marathi word which means
move ahead. When we go to the Lord Ganesh Temple Siddhi Vinayank the watchman
says Sarka Pude{move ahead] The question to ask ourselves is that If we are not
allowed to stand in God’s
temple for longer then three minutes then why do people stand in their shit for so
long.
Divorce or
Separation teaches us the art of Sarka Pude. End to a marriage does
not imply putting an end to all other relationships, but simply opens
up various other avenues to form stronger bonds with other equally important
people. In other words, the end of ones marriage can be alternatively be the next step of the parting partners towards
giving themselves another chance to get out of the bondages of an obsolete
relationship and step into a better relationship with others and themselves.
Divorce thus can help the parting
partners to transform vulnerability, shame and guilt into respect and self-love giving themselves another
chance and step into a better relationship with others and us.
