there is a question for you as well as all other independent thinkers

who care. please forward to anybody who you think may care about this

issue and who may help

 

-----

DEAR SEEKERS OF THE TRUTH,

I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS EVERY RESPECT FOR YOUR ACTIVITIES AND FOR

YOUR DESIRE TO KNOW THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH AND FOR YOUR POSITIVE

ATTITUDES.

 

PLEASE HELP ME SOLVE A FEW OF MY LONG-LASTING ISSUES.

WHAT SHOULD AN ATTITUDE OF MEN TOWARD WOMEN BE? AND THEIR ATTITUDE

TOWARD THEMSELVES,TOO? I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT. I AM ACTUALLY ASKING

THOSE WHO HAVE EVER TAKEN THE TIME TO THINK THIS ISSUE OVER,NOT

FEMINISTS OR OTHER EMOTIONAL PEOPLE.

 

SRILA PRABHUPADA IN HIS COMMENTS TO THE BHAGAVATA PURANA(S.B.,Cant1)

STATES THAT BY THE KALI YUGA,ALL THE PEOPLE HAVE STOOPED AS LOW AS

SUDRAS AND WOMEN. I'M NOT A FEMINIST,BUT AT THESE WORDS EVEN MY

FEELINGS GOT IRRITATED. CANAKYA PUNDIT SAYS WOMEN ARE EAGER TO COMMIT

SIN WITH ANY MAN AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY. ALTHOUGH I PERSONALLY

DISAGREE. I KNOW A FEW YOUNG LADIES WHO ARE NOT LIKE C.P.'S

PERCEPTION OF THEM. PERHAPS,THE CONDUCT DEPENDS ON ONE'S INDIVIDUAL

RELIGIOUSNESS. OR SOME KIND OF INBORN MORALITY,OR PERHAPS ACQUIRED

FROM THE PARENTS(IN THIS CASE IT MAY NOT BE STRONG). ANYWAY,WITH ALL

MY REVERENCE BEFORE THE DEDICATED HINDU PUNDIT,I AM AGAINST

GENERALIZING. BUT LOOK HERE - IN ONE OF HIS INNUMERABLE EPISTLES,THE

THIRTEENTH APOSTLE SAYS THAT A WOMAN OUGHT TO BE SILENT (1

Cor.14:34). AND SUFI MYSTICS? DON'T YOU GET A FEELING THAT THEIR

WRITINGS WERE COMPOSED FOR MEN SPECIFICALLY? OR CAN IT BE THAT I DO

NOT UNDERSTAND THE GENDER ISSUE IN WRITINGS? PLEASE FIND SOME OTHER

REFERENCES IF YOU WANT TO

 

AND ANOTHER QUESTION POPPED UP IN MY HEAD A FEW TIMES: WHY ARE MEN

PREACHERS, BUT WOMEN ONLY SHARE SOME LIFE EPISODES AT CHRISTIAN

CHURCHES OR PLAY SOME ASSISTING ROLES? CAN'T THEY TALK ABOUT SERIOUS

THINGS? CAN'T THEY BE CONVINCING? PLEASE EVERYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO

SAY WHAT THIS WEIRD ATTITUDE TOWARD WOMEN COMES FROM,FEEL FREE TO

WRITE TO ME AT <tim73

I WILL BE TRULY GRATEFUL IF YOU CAN CLARIFY MY CONFUSIONS.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME,

TIM
