Wisdom Tale | Degree of compatibility in your relationship
We live with a person for years and still feel uncertain about some of his choices. Does this happen to you when you are not sure of your partner’s reaction on a particular issue? Today’s Wisdom Tale talks about understanding your partner to the core. What is the degree of compatibility in your relationship?
Compatibility in your relationship
Munivar Gautam and his wife Ahalya lived a simple life in a village. Gautam was a true tapasvi and his wife was equally good in taking care of all his needs. She was extremely beautiful. One day, Indra dev conspired to become Munivar Gautam and tricked her. At this time, her actual husband was away chanting his hymns as he did as a part of his daily routine. On the other hand, Ahalya had a good time with Indradev in the afternoon with the slightest doubt that he is not her husband.
When Munivar Gautam returned home, he saw Indra dev leaving his house. He got furious and cursed both of them. Munivar Gautam left everything and went to the Himalayas for core Tapasya.
While Indra dev had wrong intentions, why was Ahalya punished? Many asked
this question later. Here, Ahalya didn’t bother to ask Indra dev, who was in the form
of her husband, why is he home at this hour of the day? She was not even suspicious.
The reality behind
Well, after living together for so long each of the partners knows the
behaviour of the other partner so well. They can predict the reaction of each other. From their favourite dishes to the most disliked menus on their tables, each and every emotion is well researched.
So tell me, what is that one reaction of your partner which you sense immediately?

If it is your child I am sure it is easy to guess the change in behaviour in a jiffy but surely husband’s act strange many times 😉 It’s a task I am still learning. Jokes apart this is more about anger management then judging the act of Ahilya (in my perspective)
Yes, that is also one of the perspectives. Thanks, Neha.
Knowing someone completely is a myth. Yes I do know how my hubby reacts in many situations but will he react the same way all the time.. No that doesn’t happen. Their is a saying right it takes years to build trust but second to break it.
Haaha, understanding relationships is a task. Thank you Swati.
To be truthful, I feel it takes a lifetime to know a person, even if he/she is a life partner. We have so many layers and we are constantly evolving on an individual level and in relationships.
Actually the truth, Sona. We have so many layers and daily we learn something and shed one skin. Thank you dear.
That’s a little unfair! She should’ve guessed the change in partner’s behaviour, but shouldn’t Gautam also know that his partner wouldn’t do anything like this “unless” she had somehow been duped?! He can curse Indra, but how much does he really understand his parter?
Hmmm. Maybe that’s what Gautam expected from Ahalya and wondered how could she been duped of his personality and cursed both. Thank you, Nupur for taking the time and commenting.
