106 Harmony in Marriage been born a man, realize that not all men are equal. Many men are like women. They have a few characteristics of a woman (e.g. deceit).

Dadashri : How can there be such lives in this Kaliyug (current time cycle of lack of unity in thoughts, speech and acts)? Even in Satyug (time cycle of truth and unity of thought, speech and acts) there were very few Satis. So how can there be any in Kaliyug? So the women are not at fault; women are like goddesses.

Being a woman is an effect of a kind and this effect works on the Soul because of the presence of ignorance. With the knowledge of the Self, this effect of a woman does not work on the Soul. This is liberation. Woman is a shakti (power, energy). In this country many women have been great in government and politics. Imagine her potential in the field of religion. They have the power to liberate the world. Women are a store of energy for the salvation of the world. She has enough energy to achieve her own liberation and help others achieve the same.
