Woman of value.

Your kindness functions like a balm to heal the heart and spirit of those in distress
Your powers of discernment, fortitude/ grit, resilience and perseverance constitute means to re-establish reinforced rules, regulations and ensure the prevalence of discipline in situations characterised by chaos
You are a creator, an ambassador of peace
You are a quintessentially divine creation
Woman of value
Manifest courage and enunciate your thoughts and feelings
This will render existence/life more fulfilling, engaging and deliver pre-ordained promises
Regardless of your age, you carry within you sparks/lights of kindness
You rekindle the spirit of the friend in need of an empathetic ear
The ability to operate as an empathetic ear is an invaluable treasure house/gift in itself
You are endowed with the ability to demonstrate tolerance vis-à-vis the brother in need of mental and psychological comfort and compassion
In your role as a maternal figure, you act as a scaffold to the father who endeavours to foster trust within the family circle
You bestow your spouse with unconditional love and happiness
Your ability to be empathetic, your compassionate approach in your dealings with a colleague in quest of comfort renders you priceless
Your powerful faith is a cynosure instrumental in illuminating the path of the one trapped in antagonistic, secular circumstances
Your soul is delightful in this woman’s body!

In our Mauritian society, women are very much conscious of their role and contribution in shaping not only the lifestyle of the family but of the society as well.
She has been brought up in a value-based environment and therefore she knows that values are the driving force behind any achievement, be it at family or society level. By virtue of her intuitive power, she has become enough daring to come forward to help / guide wherever she feels she can bring benefit. Inspite of unprecedented happenings, like COVID-19 and many life’s challenges, she has continued to be as effective and efficient in assuming her role and responsibilities in the family and society.
Historically women have been saluted as ‘Holy Mothers’ and it has also been said about them that ‘Heaven lies at the feet of women/mothers’.

Gender Equality
It should not be hard to realise that the real problem is rooted in the attitudes and beliefs of people and it is these wrong attitudes and wrong beliefs that lead to wrong behaviour.
So, what needs to be ended is the attitude of gender-discrimination and the belief that women are weak, inferior and deficient. Things will not change by giving women merely greater authority and making them in-charge of certain affairs of the society but by building in them a sense of self-respect and self-confidence.
There cannot be equality on the basis of body because, body-wise each gender has different abilities and a different role to play. The equality that is sought, can be achieved by transcending the differences between the male and the female identity, based on body-consciousness and gender-consciousness and instead, identifying the self as a soul – a tiny point of light, might and divinity. It is soul-consciousness that will give self-respect, feeling of human dignity and spiritual strength and strong will.
Raj Yoga Meditation is the real way of empowerment of women and men and bringing equality, development and peace. It should be understood in this context that one can fulfill one’s responsibilities and play one’s positive role if one has positive attitude, positive intentions and constructive outlook.

Gender Equality Today for a Sustainable Tomorrow.
Let’s start with tomorrow. What do we see in our dream world? Is it a world of man? Or is it a world of women?
Or is it a world of balance?
The Creator is Perfect. His creation is perfect. And Balance which is the iron law of the universe is perfect!
We all understand that Gender Equality is a sign of a civilised and sustainable society.
We must also recognize that Inner Gender Equality i.e. the balance of masculine and feminine principles that animates the soul within our body, is a sign of a civilised and sustainable person.
Self respect is the way. Respect for others is the goal.
