WOMEN
IN HINDU SOCIETY |
|
|
| Purity,
self-control, devotion and austerity are as much necessary for woman
as for man. However Hinduism does not shut its eyes to the
differences that do exist between man and woman, biological as well
as temperamental. That is why it has defined their areas of activity
depending upon their Svadharma or special characteristics and
prescribed slightly different modes of life and discipline.
The strength and the soundness of a
society are sustained by those of the family ; and woman is the
central figure in a family. Just imagine the tremendous
responsibility that is placed on her ! A Griha or home is no home
but for the Grihini (the mistress of the family). |
