Stop the voilence against women
in India and the rest of the World
Stop het geweld tegen vrouwen in India en de rest van de Wereld
Any form of voilence againts woman, in tought word or deed , goes in against the principles of Hinduism.
Hinduism has great respect for woman. Woman are regarded as Devi or the Divine Mother ( God in his aspect of Divine mercy). They are considerd as a manifestation of the Divine Mother. In Hinduism there is absolute equality of men and woman. Of the sacred scriptures shines very clearly the high respect for woman.
Here are some examples:
-Manu Smitri ( the most important lawbook): “ Where woman are honounerd,
there the gods are pleased, but where they are not honoured there no sacred
rite is fruitfull.”
- Manu Smitri: “ the woman who always does good, who is efficient is work,
sweet in speech, devoted to her duty and service of her husband, is really
no human being, but a Goddess.”
- Mahabaratha, Anisasana parva, XLVI : Bishma: “ respect, kind treatment
and everything that is agreeable, should all be giving to the maiden whose
hand is taken in marriage.”… … “ Woman should always worshipped and
treated with affection. … there where woman are not worshipped there all
acts become fruitless.”
