Acharya Prashant: What does it mean to be a woman? A lot that is hurtful. Why must one keep bearing the hurt? One bears the hurt because one is drawing certain comforts. The hurt is deep and lasting. The comforts are cheap. The comforts like the hurts are both physical and psychological.
There has to be a total revolution. In the way the woman looks at herself, she cannot be a creature of the nest. As long as the nest exists the woman would be exploited. With females in the animal kingdom, the nest is passable. The nest works because animals are just biological or at least mostly biological. They are not governed predominantly by social forces. Prakriti governs them. And so if prakriti dictates the female animal to have a nest, it works.
The animal female is an animal born. An animal dies, an animal is not ambitious. Lives just fulfilling her prakritik roles. The animal male is too just an animal; is born an animal, dies an animal and has no ambition, beyond his prakritik mandate to conquer or exploit. But man is not merely biological. Man is social as well. And man has a social mandate to conquer, exploit.
