Can i marry my mother

I am in love and want to marry the daughter of my mother's father's bother's son's daughter.

In simple My mother is her father's paternal uncle's daughter. My mother's grand father (Paternal) and Her father's grand father (Paternal) is the same person.

 So is it possible for us to marry under hindu marriage act? We are from brahmin community under Hinduism and I am from Assam. Please suggest and will be very grateful if it's possible.

No. You both are within prohibition relationship which will make your Hindu Marriage null and void under section 5, 11 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955.

Am I not the 4th generation from my mother's side? As I think if I am the first generation from bottom , my mother is the 2nd generation, my mother's father (my maternal grand father) is 3rd generation and my mother's father's father (My maternal great grand father) is 4th generation. Is not it the act permits to marry the 4th generation from my mother's side? 

My mother and her father is not siblings, they are cousins. Please help
