At least it is advised to wait as long as they can. Brahmacari is time for self-control, austerity. To build up strong character. Srila Prabhupad instructed, and Manu states in the Manu Samhita, that a boy should put off marriage up until the point when his service or duties become hindered due to mental agitation. Then he can marry. But, for girls, Prabhupad taught that prior to puberty they should be married. And girl should be given a child as soon as she is able.

Labouring hard doesn't change the ownership

Posted by dinesh

Just because we labour hard on the raw materials we get from nature for building some earthly object doesn't mean we own the objects of this world. This is especially in the case of a construction of a huge building or in the case of a food recipe prepared from variety of ingredients. The source of all taste is from the raw materials. Plants become so tasty because of the energy they receive from moon at night time. Any sane man knows that moon and sun are not controlled by any human or animal but by God.

We should always remember this fact to avoid unintentional or intentional building of pride within our minds on our great cooking talents.
