Partha dasa and Uttama devi

How did you get married?

Partha dasa: We met in high school in 1970 and got married in 1971. I had graduated and Uttama was finishing her final semester when we were married.

Uttama devi: Due to the antiestablishment mood of that era, we were just going to live together, however my father would not allow ‘his daughter’ to leave home without being married.

Bio of Sridevi dasi/ Dr. Lakshmi Dajak.
How did you meet your spouse and how long have you been married?
I met my very dear husband, His Grace, Nanda Suta das at the farm in New Talavana. A senior devotee in our community thought we’d make a good match and we met officially at his place. As this is a second marriage for both of us, we were enormously particular about making sure our astrological charts matched- both of us were very serious about marriage and commitment.

Tamohara das and Mantrini devi dasi

Tamohara das and Mantrini devi dasi Wedding Fire Sacrifice in 1974, Dallas, TX

How did you get married?
We have been married for 37 years. We met before we were devotees through mutual friends. Tamohara was 19 and I was 23. We had each already had failed marriages by that time and had a child (each) from them. We were both searching for a spiritual path and had an instinct that our teacher would come from India. Little did we know the wonderful gift that was in front of us.

Arcana-siddhi devi and Karnamrta das

Karnam and Archana Karnam and Archana Archana and Karnam in Vrindavana Archana and Karnam in Vrindavana

How did you meet and marry?
Both Karnamrita and I went through the pain of having a failed first marriage. We both had spouses that gave up their Krishna Conscious practices and were engaging in illicit activities. We both value marriage as a life time commitment, but we have seen that there are times when the marriage can become detrimental to ones spiritual life. Our first marriages are a testament to what happens when couples are not properly matched and there are no devotee mentors or counselors to help them in difficulty.
