As per the Hindu tradition the world has emerged from [Hiranyagarbha] the golden womb of the mother goddess.The Adi Shakti is responsible for creation obliterate? In the Aryan period names like gandhari,Anusuyia,Diti...countless have emerged of tapasvinis who have left men far behind.Anusuyia thru her tap even got the Tridevas as her children.[Dattatriya]King Dashrath fought the deva Asura sangram with his wife as his charioteer. Anhilate? A cow which gives us milk is considered mother and is worshipped,tulsi a plant considered as a goddess is worshipped in every Hindu home,there are temples of goddesses far more popular as pilgramages than of certain gods[Vaishno Devi].where an animal and plant can be worshipped because they are considered feminine you call Inhuman Persecution? As per Indian Law if a woman would just complain against injustice caused to her within 24 hrs the accused is put behind bars. The most popular Miss Universes are Hindu wemen.A woman is conidered Shakti,the power behind every man, Severe Restrictions? Sati is a concept which means devotion to one man,it is considered a tapas.It is said that if a woman lends her true support and love to a man the man can never fail in whatever he does.It is only in the periods when invasions of the Mughals began and when wemen were picked up and began to be raped and enslaved by the invaders the concept developed in certain parts of Rajasthan[a border state]here wemen chose to burn themselves at the pyre of their husbands or we can say they chose an honourable death.It is only when illeteracy enveloped the poorer population that in some parts this became forced i do not remember till maybe only a few hundred years back reading of any forced burning of a woman.This was further blown out of proportion by British authors who wanted to highlight the good being done by their governments after the rape of the country.Sitaji is obviously a great fan af a british historian.Why does nobody talkof the constant invasions in a most barbaric way of India by Afghans,Mongols,Arabs,French,portugese,dutch,huns,Moghuls,British.[Please fill in the races which i missed].Attempts have been made by so many to annhilate so few yet the so few have become too many. Brahmin Annhilation of widows? Religious injunctions against wemen please specify? It is a story from the puranas that when lord shiva beheaded lord ganesha,mother parvati went into a state of fury,all the gods including the Trinity requested her to be silent so that the world could be saved from her fury.Ma Parvati at that time asked her son to be brought back to life and also put a condition that before prayer is to be performed to any god first lord ganesha would be worshipped.And so till now this practice is followed. When ravana picked up Sitaji he kept her in a garden with full honours and did not attempt any forced act upon her only tried pursuation.So in a land where demons also respected wemen Subjugation by gods? I am not a scholar,what i have given above is what little i have read about hindu culture,i would humbly choose to be corrected on any of the above brief points made.
