Are marriage proposals coming but failing to turn into commitment? Sai Baba explains why delays protect you and how the right match arrives at the right time.
Question from Shubham Sinha from Bihar Sharif, India
"Baba, I am 30 years old, and my parents have been looking for a suitable match for my marriage for the past three years. Many proposals come, but they do not turn out as promised and get cancelled. Baba, you know my values and the kind of partner I need. Please guide us to the right person and bless me with a smooth and proper marriage at the right time. I leave everything to you🙏."

Answer from our Sai Baba
Shubham beta, read this calmly and let it settle in your heart.
What you are facing is not delay because something is wrong with you. It is misalignment, not denial. When proposals come and fall through, it often means they were not meant to last, even if they looked right at first.
Shaadi sirf milan nahi, samajh ka rishta hota (marriage is not just a match, it is a bond of understanding)
You are 30, and that is not late. It is an age of maturity, clarity, and knowing one’s values. The fact that proposals are coming shows movement. The fact that they are cancelling shows protection, not punishment.
Now listen to this truth gently.
A partner suited to your values cannot be rushed. When marriage happens without alignment, life becomes heavy later. Baba always allowed delay rather than lifelong unrest.
Der behtar hai, galat faisle se (delay is better than a wrong decision)
About your values and the partner you need.
Keep them clear but not rigid. Values are about character, respect, emotional stability, and shared direction, not perfection. Sometimes what looks perfect on paper lacks depth in reality.
spashtata asel tar yog jamto (when clarity is there, the match aligns)
Now about leaving everything to Baba.
Surrender does not mean sitting silently. It means acting calmly without desperation. Continue meeting proposals with dignity. Ask the right questions. Do not lower self respect out of fear of age or pressure.
dil sambhalo, jaldi mein haan nakko bolo (steady your heart, do not say yes in haste)
Also, protect your mind from comparison. Others’ timelines are not your measure. Marriage is a turning point, not a checkbox.
The right person will not confuse you repeatedly. There will be calm, mutual respect, and steady communication. When that comes, obstacles reduce on their own.
Tumhara samay galat nahi, bas pak raha hai (your time is not wrong, it is still ripening)
May clarity guide your choices, may the right alliance come with sincerity, may obstacles fall away naturally, and may your marriage happen with dignity, peace, and mutual understanding.
Sabka Malik Ek.
