Acharya Prashant addresses the deep-seated guilt many women feel when prioritizing their personal growth over traditional domestic roles. He explains that guilt is only justified when one fails in their true responsibility. However, most women's concepts of responsibility are not self-derived but are products of social conditioning, patriarchal traditions, and media influence. He points out that historical and religious interpretations have often limited a woman's duty solely to her husband, denying her a direct relationship with truth or society. This indoctrination leads women to feel guilty for trivial matters, such as not serving tea at a specific time, while they remain indifferent to the actual 'guilt' of wasting their human potential and intellect. He further argues that the 'hyper-maternal' instinct often seen in certain cultures is more social than biological, as it varies significantly across the globe. True responsibility toward a child involves developing one's own consciousness first; a mother who lacks self-knowledge, skills, or a broad worldview cannot effectively guide her child's mental and spiritual growth. Acharya Prashant criticizes how women often become subjects of ridicule in popular culture due to a lack of basic skills and knowledge, yet they do not feel guilty about this intellectual void. He concludes that the primary responsibility of every individual, regardless of gender, is toward their own consciousness and spiritual evolution. One must identify their true duties through self-awareness and discard externally imposed, false burdens.
