A PUFFED UP CONCEPT OF WOMANLY LIFE
 



Modern education has artificially devised a puffed up concept of womanly life, and therefore marriage is practically now an imagination in human society.
Nor is the moral condition of woman very good now.



Now, in the Manu-samhita, it is clearly stated that a woman should not be given freedom. That does not mean that women are to be kept as slaves, but they are like children. Children are not given freedom, but that does not mean that they are kept as slaves. The demons have now neglected such injunctions, and they think that women should be given as much freedom as men. However, this has not improved the social condition of the world. Actually, a woman should be given protection at every stage of life. She should be given protection by the father in her younger days, by the husband in her youth, and by the grownup sons in her old age. This is proper social behavior according to the Manu-samhita. But modern education has artificially devised a puffed up concept of womanly life, and therefore marriage is practically now an imagination in human society. Nor is the moral condition of woman very good now. The demons, therefore, do not accept any instruction which is good for society, and because they do not follow the experience of great sages and the rules and regulations laid down by the sages, the social condition of the demoniac people is very miserable.

[Srila Prabhupada from Bhagavad-gita As It Is 16.7 Divine and Demoniac Natures. 1972]

Note: Feminism is the complex system concocted in the minds of the demoniac Illuminati which goes against the natural design of Krishna [God]. Such a sinister ideology has only one purpose namely to bring irreligion into the family and corruption to the women thereof. From the degradation of womanhood comes unwanted progeny which are the real cause of war and pestilence.

These are the true results of the Feminist Agenda not so called freedom and equality!!!

Feminism opens the gates of Mother Earth for a flood of demons to take birth here, whereas Krishna Consciousness opens her gates for the appearance of highly elevated saints and sages or heavenly angels whose saintly presence here will uplift the whole world to spiritual sanity, peace and love. This is the great spiritual mission of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.


The varṇasrama religion's principles were so designed
that the good population would prevail in society for the general spiritual progress of state and community. Such population depends on the chastity and faithfulness of its womanhood. As children are very prone to be misled, women are similarly very prone to degradation.


TRANSLATION: When irreligion is prominent in the family, O Kṛṣṇa, the women of the family become corrupt, and from the degradation of womanhood, O descendant of Vṛṣṇi, comes unwanted progeny.

PURPORT: Good population in human society is the basic principle for peace, prosperity and spiritual progress in life. The varṇasrama religion's principles were so designed that the good population would prevail in society for the general spiritual progress of state and community. Such population depends on the chastity and faithfulness of its womanhood. As children are very prone to be misled, women are similarly very prone to degradation. Therefore, both children and women require protection by the elder members of the family. By being engaged in various religious practices, women will not be misled into adultery. According to Caṇakya Paṇḍit, women are generally not very intelligent and therefore not trustworthy. So, the different family traditions of religious activities should always engage them, and thus their chastity and devotion will give birth to a good population eligible for participating in the varṇasrama system. On the failure of such varṇasrama-dharma, naturally the women become free to act and mix with men, and thus adultery is indulged in at the risk of unwanted population. Irresponsible men also provoke adultery in society, and thus unwanted children flood the human race at the risk of war and pestilence.

Women’s Liberation

This exchange between His Divine Grace A.C. BhaktivedantawamiSwami Prabhupadand a woman reporter took place at Chicago'sand a woman reporter took place at Chicago's Krsna center during the summer of 1975.complex system

Reporter: What advice do you have for women who do not want to be subordinate to men?

Srila Prabhupada: It is not my advice but the advice of the Vedic literatures that a woman should be chaste and faithful to her husband.

Reporter: What should we do in the United States? We're trying to make women equal with men.

 

Srila Prabhupada: You will never be equal with men, because in so many respects your functions are different. Why do you say artificially they're equal with man's? The wife has to become pregnant, not the husband. How can you change this? Both the husband and wife will become pregnant is it possible?

Reporter: [No reply.]

Srila Prabhupada: Is it possible?

Reporter: No. It is not.

Srila Prabhupada: Then by nature, one has to function differently from the other.

Reporter: Why does this mean that women have to be subordinate just because they bear children and men can't?

Srila Prabhupada: By nature, as soon as you get children you require support from your husband. Otherwise, you are in difficulty.

Reporter: Many women with children have no support from their husband. They have no

Srila Prabhupada: Then they have to take support from others. You cannot deny that. The government is giving them support. Today the government is embarrassed. If the husband supported the wife and children, the government would be relieved of so much welfare expenditure. So that is a problem.

Reporter: What happens when women support men?

Srila Prabhupada: First of all, try to understand that you are dependent. After a man and woman unite, there are children. And if the man goes away, you are embarrassed the woman is embarrassed. Why? The poor woman is embarrassed with the child she has to beg from the government. So do you think it is a very nice thing? The Vedic idea is that a woman should be married to a man, and the man should take care of that woman and the children independently so that they do not become a burden to the government or to the public.

Reporter: Do you think that the social unrest

Srila Prabhupada: I am thinking like this. You give me the answer! Simply you go on questioning. I will question you Do you think this burden to the government and the public is good?

Reporter: I don't understand what you're saying.

Srila Prabhupada: Every year the government has to pay out millions of dollars in aid to dependent children. Do you think that this burden caused when the husband goes away from the wife this burden to the government and the people is good?

Reporter: No.

Srila Prabhupada: That has happened because the woman does not agree to be subordinate. She wants "equal freedom."

Reporter: And if women were subordinate to men, I suppose that would solve all of our problems?

Srila Prabhupada: Yes. The husband wants that his wife should be subordinate faithful to him. Then he's ready to take charge. Man's mentality and woman's mentality are different. So, if the woman agrees to remain faithful and subordinate to the man, then family life will be peaceful. Otherwise the husband goes away, and the woman is embarrassed with the children, and it becomes a burden to the government and the people in general.

Reporter: Is there anything wrong when the woman works?

Srila Prabhupada: There are so many things wrong, but the first thing is, Why should some man's wife and child become a burden to the government or the public? First of all answer this. Why should she become a burden?

Reporter: [No reply.]

Srila Prabhupada: What is your answer?

Reporter: Well, men are burdens to the government, too.

Srila Prabhupada: Do you think, from the social point of view, that this situation of women and fatherless children is a very nice thing?

Reporter: What I'm trying to say is that … this may happen to some women … I'm talking about women who are not

Srila Prabhupada: This is the general pattern. You cannot say "some." In America I see they are mostly women…. The woman should be subordinate to the man, so that the man can take charge of the woman. Then the woman is not a problem for the public.

Reporter: Is this true for all women and all men?

Srila Prabhupada: Yes. That is the law of nature. You take even the dogs they also take care of their children. The tigers they take care of their children. So in the human society, if the woman is made pregnant and the man goes away, then she is embarrassed she has to beg from the government. That is not a very good situation.

Reporter: What about women who do not have children?

Srila Prabhupada: Well, that is another unnatural thing. Sometimes they use contraceptives, or they kill their children abortion. That is also not very good. These are all sinful activities.

Reporter: Excuse me?

Srila Prabhupada: These are sinful activities killing the child in the womb and taking shelter of abortion. These are all sinful activities. One has to suffer for them.

Reporter: Is the social unrest in this country caused because

Srila Prabhupada: Because of these things. They do not know that.
