Guest guest Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba says: On Dharma (Right- conduct) Of a Young Woman: Chastity (pure, virtuous) is the ideal for womankind. By strength derived from this virtue for which she has to be extolled (praise enthusiastically) the most. Chastity is the crown jewel for woman. Modesty (Having or expressing a humble or moderate estimate of one's merits) is the essential for women; it is her priceless jewel. It is against Dharma for a woman to overstep the limits of modesty; crossing the limits brings about many calamities. Why, the very glory of womanhood will be destroyed. Without modesty, woman is devoid (lacking or free from) of beauty and culture. Humility (humbleness), purity of thought and manners, meekness (gentle), surrender to high ideals, sensitivity, sweetness of temper – the peculiar blend of all these qualities is modesty. The first title given to a woman is "Griha Lakshmi" (the Goddess of Home). A woman is expected to confer the entire prosperity, honour and good name on the home and the family. She is characterized as Griha Lakshmi and not Office- Lakshmi. Sairam, with love.................... Cheese...................... Raju.
