Interpretation

One of the wonders of this Universe is the complex relationship between a male & female human being…this is such a bitter-sweet relationship that one can neither live without it nor can he/she be totally satisfied within it

Actually, this is true for the male & female of any species; but since man is the most evolved of all species, there is a different flavor to this relationship

Mankutimma, this relationship is so complex & intricate that it cannot be explained or measured in any standard way. The nuances of this relationship are so fine that it is very confusing to understand why some people love or hate each other with such passion. Why the same couple love & hate each other with equal passion? However, do realise that as you enter into these relationships, your actions will come back to either haunt you or help you as Karma…the Creator in his manifestation as Providence keeps an account of all ongoings & pays you back accordingly. Hence it is very important for you to lead your life in a balanced & judicious manner.
