Hi Kalpana!
I hope you had a great Women's Day!
Good link about thoughts on women. One of them:
"[Talking to an American audience] I should very much like our women to have your intellectuality, but not if it must be at the cost of purity. I admire you for all that you know, but I dislike the way that you cover what is bad with roses and call it good. Intellectuality is not the highest good. Morality and spirituality are the things for which we strive. Our women are not so learned, but they are more pure".
Is that tue? (last sentence)

Take good care!

art : Thanks.

krystyna : Thank you.
"Vivekananda was full of praise for American women, appreciating their get-up-and-go, their participation in the social and political life, as well as their abilities to be mothers, wives, sisters and enter the labor market if they wished. But it should be noted that he scolded American women too, actually he scolded everyone for not grounding one's life in divinity."
These words are from the link http://www.vivekananda.org/faqs.asp Check it out. If He is alive now, no idea what message He would have given.
