Dear Devaji and Sis Kari,

 

Your respective observations about the religious tomes of old have

raised a lot of food for thought.

 

Just a humble 2 dimes' worth (though I may be wrong): The saints and

sages who wrote Holy Books/ Puranas, etc. referred to "He" but may

also have meant "She" (he/she) in the context that all is "God" -

there is no Shiva without Shakti. You are right about "Mankind" not

being able to exist without "Womankind".

 

Then there was caveman and cavewoman. Then the caste systems, etc.

etc. Then there were those clergymen who 'rewrote' holy books to

serve their own agendas, whether political or religious, to try keep

some sort of control over the differences between male and female.

 

Sadly even today, there are many countries that consider their women

to be sort of inferior second-class citizens.

 

Thankfully through the course of history, there have been women like

Cleopatra and several empresses from olden day Chinese dynasties that

have proven that women can have abilities as excellent as men do.

 

Say for example today, there have been very few women presidents or

heads of states or countries. At the moment, only 2 female presidents

come to mind like in Indonesia and the Philippines.

 

Sis Kari, you're absolutely right about the women on this List being

able to testify as to the powers and energies of Rudraksha beads.

 

About Buddhism, since that originated from India, Buddhist writings

would have been inclined to follow in the footsteps of Indian sages.

 

As a matter of interest: There have been some changes in the wider

feminist Buddhist view too. In 1993, Diane Perry (Tenzin Palmo) at

the Dharamsala Conference confronted the HH the Dalai Lama about

sexual discrimmination they'd faced. Since then the nuns have

received appropriate recognition. A team of accomplished nuns began

touring the globe making sand mandalas of the Kalachakra deity for

world peace (that was a task traditionally undertaken by monks only).

 

A nunnery (Dolma Ling) was established in Dharamsala where nuns

learnt the art of debating which is another humungous leap forward.

Previously, the art of "dialectics" was customarily regarded as an

exclusive domain of monks.

 

I can go on and on..... but will shut up now :-)

 

Tatt Twam Asi,

Sy
