A beautiful question. The house should be regarded as a temple and ourselves as trustees. Beauty and harmony of the inner and outer is the key to a house consecrated to the Divine. The eye should be on perfection and each object treated consciously as there is in them also a living Presence.
This is the essence. The relation between the husband and wife should one of equal partners who help each other grow and progress towards higher ideals. At the core of their relationship should be the aspiration for the Divine or at least a higher ideal. A mutual sharing of common ideals, interests and affinities at different levels makes the relationship harmonious and beautiful.
Children should be conceived consciously, if the couple wishes to, and brought up consciously in an atmosphere of peace, harmony and love. Parents should be the living example of the qualities they want the children to possess.
Quarrels, anger, distrust destroy the house whereas love, harmony, peace and truth nurture and nourish it.
This in a way is the gist of it.
