Season of "Swayamwar"



Seems like parents are in no mood to let their single ones to remain in bachelor state for long. Eligible bachelors also don't have concrete excuses to evade marriage proposals. Last year it was recession but this year market has picked up and many new job opportunities have also cropped up.

My case is no different, last year was able to save myself but seems like no excuse is going to work. My mom did come to bangalore for attending a swayamwar being organized by "Shri Narayana Guru Samiti, Bangalore"on 26th Jan 2010. There were 400 registrants for the meet. We took our respective seats as allotted by the volunteer.

Programme began at 11 am by lighting the lamp, soon profile of guys and girls were displayed on screens with specific details. Each individual was allotted a profile number, prospective brides / grooms need to note down. I handed over my notepad and pen to mom and asked her to select her daughter in law. Till lunch time my mom had selected 4 girls, I took the details of the girls to make our horoscope.

By the end of the event we had shortlisted 8 girls, now my parents need approach our astrologer to match horoscope followed by personal meeting etc. I am getting nightmare thinking about it, my parents are consoling me saying things will be fine don't worry.

Is their any way for all eligible to escape marriage till they are prepared for it?
