Acharya Prashant explains the profound meaning behind Guru Nanak Sahib's verses in Asa Di Var, which challenge the tendency to disparage women. He identifies two groups who typically view women negatively: misogynists who believe in male supremacy and certain spiritualists who equate womanhood with Prakriti or Maya, viewing it as the root of bondage. Acharya Prashant clarifies that Guru Nanak Sahib addresses both groups, exposing their hypocrisy. For the common man, the Guru highlights his total dependence on women for birth, companionship, and the continuation of generations. He points out the double standard where men often cannot live without women yet treat them as inferior or as a curse.
