One cannot expect to live a happy life if you marry someone who does not share the values and beliefs that you hold. The most obvious is a sikh with a non-sikh, but as there are many types of sikhs too, you MUST get to know the person before moving forward. Arranged marriages, even as they occur now, are a farce. Parents call them arranged, but most of the time the couple get to know one another before they commit.

For example, if I am a strict amritdhari (taksali rehat, etc.) and I try to marry someone who I later find out doesn't care much for sikhi, the marriage is in for some trouble, because to compromise, both have to give up some of their beliefs.

As a 30 something who had a "love" marriage you would expect me to say love marriage is better. This is not the case. Either marriage is acceptable provided people go into them with eyes wide open.

I got married to a Sikh woman, and it was a conscoius choice because I knew my values and would more likely be shared with a Sikh woman. This however, should not be the end all and be all for choosing a relationship.

Sikhism says:

"Recognise the Human Race as One"

and that is what you should do when selecting a partner and not prejudice cloud your judgement. However, this should not also be used as and excuse for dismissing all Sikhs as a potential partner either...........

Here's a joke i recieved on sms few days back, I thought it fits well in this topic:

Q: What is the difference between love marriage and arranged marriage?

A: One is a perfect suicide, and the other is a planned murder.

hmm u confusing it up now. Sikhi does not say anything about arranged/love marriage. It shouldn't really mater who you marry..

that's true... one style and concept does not neccesarily fit all. I will probably get into a 'love" relationchip than a planned relationship. i don't see myself meeting someone and then being with them for the rest of my life that quickly.
