“Love, trust, beauty, sincerity,
truthfulness, faithfulness – these are all feminine qualities, and they
are far greater than any qualities that man has.
But the whole past has been dominated by man and his qualities.
This is so very natural that in any war,
the feminine qualities like love, truth, beauty, trust, sincerity,
faithfulness are of no use at all in any of the situations. In wars, you
got to have a heart which should be stonier than stones. In war, you
need to simply hate, you need anger and a madness to destroy.
In almost of three thousand years, man has fought five thousand wars. Yes, this is also strength but not worthy of human beings. This is strength derived from our animal inheritance.
It belongs to the past, which is gone, and the feminine qualities belong to the future, which is coming
So, the women folks shouldn’t feel weak
because of their feminine qualities. In fact, they should feel grateful
to existence that what man has to earn; they have been given by nature
as a gift.
Man needs to learn Godly qualities, but women are gifted those qualities by the Nature.
Man has to learn how to love, how to let
the heart be the master and the mind be just an obedient servant. Man
has to learn these things. The woman brings these things with her, but
we condemn all these qualities as weaknesses. For example, Joan of Arc
had all the qualities of man. The Queen of Jhansi in India had all the
qualities of man: she could fight with a naked sword, could kill people
without any problem. Such women have been chosen in history and great
tribute is paid to them by the historians. And they don’t represent
women. In fact, that is the reason why they have been chosen, because
they are just carbon copies of men.
Women are women and men are men; there is no question of comparison.
Equality is out of the question. They are not unequal and neither can they be equal. They are unique.
Rejoice in your feminine qualities;
make poetry of your feminine qualities. That is your great inheritance
from nature. Don’t throw it away, because the man does not have them. To
be equal, you may start doing idiotic things.
The woman should not try to imitate man
We have a deep respect for feminine
qualities and those qualities prohibit many things, encourage many other
things. The woman should not try to imitate man, because even if you
succeed…. It is difficult to succeed. Imitation is always imitation, it
is never equal. But for argument’s sake, if we accept that you can
become exactly like a man, you will lose all that you have and you will
not gain anything. Because even in the eyes of man, you will not be
beautiful anymore, and in your own eyes, you will be shattered. It was
better to be unequal than to be equal, because now the man takes no
interest.
A woman should keep her separateness, should save
all her feminine qualities and purify them. In this way she is going,
according to her nature, towards enlightenment.”
