Shakthi poojan..WO-MEN.

Agnihotri women..pics..

So true madhu. Such a meaningful shloka . The woman in the above pics from both families are so different from each other. The family of kirloskars where the ladies are given rights to make decision in life and are respected . Ajju being elder of the family from the Older generation never feels woman are less then men and always treated equal where as Anjali has always said men are always superior then woman though she like it herself or not but always implemented it in her household. These elder ladies of both family have a different opinion and they stand like two different poles.

Nice post men and women both are responsible for creating a nice family Astha is right men and women should be equal

Nice pics madhu. I would differ in one point, women need equality not special status/respect. I don't think women ever enjoyed an equal place with men in India or anywhere else. In all our epics and in the history books, all we see is atrocities against women.

nice post of agnihotri family

Yes lovely loved the pics waiting for the A females pics

Serve him wanting Astha to do pati Pooja now do patni Pooja Shlok babu

(A house becomes HOME because of the WOMAN (wife) occupying it)

Naturally, the women had complete authority over the management of the household as well. The modern word of "Home-Maker"

MAN's life is not complete until he gets a wife and lives happily by treating and respecting her as his equal, nay, his other-half.The couple in their wisdom, called that most important concept of "FAMILY" as a chariot and equated MAN & WOMAN as its two wheels.

Therefore, the WOMEN due to their inherent biological nature, weaker physical structure than men and child-bearing ability were trained and encouraged to get education in the art of HOME MANAGEMENT or SOFTER PURSUITS (As I had said this was not a rule but was a COMMON WISDOM of the era considering WOMAN's physical / biological structure.). The ultimate objective was always to create HAPPY FAMILY and ultimately a VIBRANT CHARACTER ORIENTED SOCIETY.

As can be seen, in VEDIC India WOMEN held special status and respect in the society. The ancient VEDIC society envisioned WOMEN as a free-spirited individuals and as NOT merely sexual objects. They knew how to balance freedom against the natural biological boundaries drawn by the nature for MEN & WOMEN. They also knew if this fine balance was not maintained how adversely it may impact the society with ill effects.

Similarly WOMEN were treated as noble, holy, respectable individuals and equal-half of MEN . Further women were looked upon as MOTHERS, SISTERS and HOME-MAKERS guiding and contributing in training of their young off-springs into becoming responsible, character-based citizens of tomorrow's society.
