TRANSLATION

 

To render service to the husband, to be always

favorably disposed toward the husband, to be equally

well disposed toward the husband’s relatives and

friends, and to follow the vows of the husband—these

are the four principles to be followed by women

described as chaste.

 

PURPORT

 

It is very important for peaceful householder life

that a woman follow the vow of her husband.. Any

disagreement with the husband’s vow will disrupt

family life. In this regard, Chanakya Pandit gives a

very valuable instruction: dampatyoù kalaho nästi

tatra çréù svayam ägatäù. When there are no fights

between husband and wife, the goddess of fortune

automatically comes to the home. A woman’s education

should be conducted along the lines indicated in this

verse. The basic principle for a chaste woman is to be

always favorably disposed toward her husband. In

Bhagavad-gita (1.40) it is said, stréñu duñöäsu

värñëeya jäyate varëa-saìkaraù: if the women are

polluted, there will be vanma shankara population. In

modern terms, the varna sankara are the hippies, who

do not follow any regulative injunctions. Another

explanation is that when the population is

varna sankara, no one can know who is on what

platform. The varnashram system system scientifically

divides society into four varnas and four ashramas, but in

varna sankara society there are no such distinctions,

and no one can know who is who. In such a society, no

one can distinguish between a brahamana, a kshatriya,

a vaishya and a shudra. For peace and happiness in the

material world, the varnashram institution must be

introduced. The symptoms of one’s activities must be

defined, and one must be educated accordingly. Then

spiritual advancement will automatically be possible.
