All other training should be secondary to religion," says Swami
Vivekananda. Mahatma Gandhi exhorts our women not to ape the West
but apply methods suitable to the Indian genius and Indian
environment. Says he : "Theirs must be the strong controlling,
purifying, steadying hand, conserving what is best in our culture
and unhesitatingly rejecting what is base and degrading. This is the
work of Sitas, Draupadis, Savitris, and Damayantis, not of amazons
and proudes."
Will our mothers and sisters heed
this advice ? |
