Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 AUM SAI RAM BHARAT NARI Bhagawan Baba has said "Bharat, India had many great women whose virtues and wisdom extolled through the centuries. Mata Sita, Sati Savitri, Gargi, Sati Anasuya, Dhamayanthi are women who are installed in the hearts of millions of people who worship them; they draw inspiration from them when confronted with calamity and crisis. They were full of unsullied love towards all who suffered. They were ready to serve the poor and the distressed; they were so steady in their Faith in God, which they put up with the direst misery in joyful submission to His Will. A woman has to maintain her house; she is not only the housewife but on her depend the Glory of the whole country! That is why we say the Motherland. It is in this spirit that we refer to our country as Bharat Mata. We also find that women are given the first position when they are associated with their counter parts as Sita Rama, Lakshmi Narayana, Radha Krishna and Parvati Parameshwara Women are not weak at all in terms of strength or ability. We have innumerable examples of the strength displayed by women in the world. As against the three potencies attributed to men, women are said to have seven potencies according to the Bhagavath Gita Can you call as weak Savitri who made the Lord of Death restore life to her husband? Can Anasuya who transformed the Divine Trinity Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva into three babies and played with them be called weak? Sumitra was a great lady who stopped the Sun from rising because her husband was predestined to die the next morning Sita shared all the hardships of life in the forest with Rama until He achieved ultimate Victory Gargi carried on the debate with the Raja Yogi Janaka in dauntless spirit There are a number of such heroic women in recorded history. Though physically women may appear weak, in reality they are full of strength. As the embodiment of the three gunas, women are endowed with exceptional strength. Even in the spiritual field, women display their boundless capacity" (Quotes from Baba- Sathya Sai Speaks – Volume VII) HAPPY SANKRANTI TO YOU ALL!
