Guest guest Posted November 14, 1999 Report Share Posted November 14, 1999 >>So anyone please correct me if I am wrong: Sannyasis, being male, may no longer be preferred over ladies to give SB class; husbands, being male, may no longer be preferred over their wives to authoritatively represent their families in the context of society;>> Well since you asked so nicely for a correction, how could I refuse. :-) The directive says nothing about personal family relationships, nor does it say anything about preferential treatment based on seniority. Thus the fact that sannyasa and male sex are correlated are irrelevant to this discussion. It only says that you can't treat anyone preferentially due to their *sex*. It says nothing about preferential treatment due to asrama or seniority. In an earlier letter to me you told me that you were a math major in college. Remember correlations? They don't allow you to draw conclusions about cause and effect. Ys, Madhusudani dasi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
