Spiritualism VS layman's path I have followed the Dharma for the last ten+ years, and have been married for thirty. l have reached a stage where my progression is noticeably obstructed by the Layman's world. I've talked to my spouse(non Buddhist), but she is upset and doesn't want her world to change. What advice would you give to both of them?
There are several options for you.


Keep the marriage life and visit a monastery for meditation for couple of weeks every six months.
Give up the marriage and get ordained. But before you do that, make sure your family has a steady income to survive.
Keep the marriage and meditate whenever your wife does not need you.
Keep the marriage and just be mindful of everything you do in lay life.
