Adiyen Swami,
Vedas instruct us as follows ‘shraddhayadeyam ashradhayadeyam’. How do we interpret this in context of kannikadanam? Is it right if a girl’s parents are extremely attached to the girl even after marriage? Frequent visits by girl’s parents to the married couple’s home (nuclear family) raises lots of concerns from boy’s family. Adiyen is in a dharma sankatam of not able to explain this to girl’s family (fearing bhagavata apacharam) nor justify to boy’s family. Does dharma shastram instruct a girl’s family to lower their abhimaanam on their daughter, after giving her in marriage or is there a mistake on boy’s family to raise such concerns? Kindly help to clarify to adiyen as how parents to behave as per shastras, post marriage.
Adiyen Swami.
