How To Manage
Alone
[ekapuruûa
abhiyoga]
1 Having marked all the favorable signs, he
turns his attention to the means of uniting with her.
Since no one assists him, he must manage
alone, although he may well be able to find some support.
When it is clear that the girl is enamored, the young man
seeks to establish relations with her.
Such relations may be of two kinds, external or internal.
The former is described first.

Obtaining the Girl
Chapter
Three
Ways Of
Obtaining The Girl
[bàlà
upakramaóà]
The ways of organizing marriage as well as the ways to relax the girl have been explained above. If the boy cannot obtain the girl he loves, there are four forms of marriage, beginning with mutual agreement, called gàndharva.
If marriage in its accepted forms cannot be carried out,
there are four other kinds of marriage. If the girl cannot be obtained by one
of the forms of marriage contemplated previously, she must be secured by one of
the following four kinds of marriage: either by the form of mutual agreement
(gàndharva), or one of the other three. This means that if the girl’s parents,
despite her agreement, refuse to give her away, marriage will take the form of
flight and mutual agreement (gàndharva), by kidnapping (paiúaca), or by capture
(ràkûasa).
