A man has an emotional dependence on his family and vice versa. We may hear the term like,” man and women are two sides of same coin”🪙🪙🪙. This statement is depicting about the importance of man and women in each other’s life. Here veena means the musical instrument which looks like a guitar.
Without its strings it is of no use. But when it is completed with strings then it produces a melodious sound. Likewise, it is very important to have a complete family member to be a happy family👨👩👧👨👩👧👦👨👩👧👧. Likewise, a family also have a strong faith on God to maintain their happiness.

Meera’s subservience on Ramesh was growing stronger day by day. She was missing his comforting presence and his gentle touch. She was also remembering his loving words. Her days became dull. It was just like a flower without sunlight. 🌻🌻🌻

3) Emotional dependence resemblance with modern society.
Dear Reader,
This quote was taken from a famous epic named Ramayana. It is believed to be more than 10,000 old epics. It was the story of love. People used to have total dependence on God and beliefs. Modern society has changed a lot since then.
Today’s people’s need and thoughts are not just limited to certain topics like war, family and agriculture👩🌾👨🌾👩🌾. Nowadays people even choose to stay single or marry someone of their own gender.
But this doesn’t mean that the teachings of ancient time are not fruitful. This quote is showing the dependence of man and women with each other in many more terms of life. It gives us a valuable knowledge so that we can have a happy family.
It teaches us importance of our partner (Love for husband and wife) and need of sacrifice in our life. Thank you!
