Participating in this event, CMD Upendrra Rai shared his thoughts on women empowerment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special Status of Women in Sanatan Dharma<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During his address, CMD Upendrra Rai highlighted the importance of women in Sanatan Dharma. He stated that in some beliefs, the conception of God is solely depicted as male, but Sanatan Dharma is unique, where the conception of God is in the form of Ardhanarishvara, representing both male and female energies. CMD Upendrra Rai further referenced Simone de Beauvoir\u2019s book \u201cThe Second Sex,\u201d stating that when the book was published, it created a stir worldwide. Simone\u2019s statement that \u201cone is not born, but rather becomes, a woman\u201d resonated deeply. He highlighted the fixed duties assigned to women in contrast to men, emphasizing the need for societal progression from such archaic views.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Culture that Diminishes Women\u2019s Contributions Will Lead to Nuclear Wars<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Chairman Upendrra Rai continued on this theme, stating, \u201cI believe that cultures that diminish women\u2019s contributions will lead to nuclear wars. Because where women are given freedom to work, harmony naturally settles. Where men are put ahead, there breeds resentment, envy, and various forms of conflict.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Women Should Not Depend on Others to Make Decisions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mr. Rai referenced Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia\u2019s book during his address, stating, \u201cIt is said that there is a time for war and a time for peace. In such circumstances, Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia made a profound statement. He wrote a book in 9 volumes on Draupadi, a remarkable book about women. Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia used to question how India would progress when half of the population was enslaved. She cannot even take a step without the approval of men. He used to say that my industrialist friend Birlaji\u2019s wife also could not make any decision against her husband\u2019s will.\u201d This implies that women, whether rich or poor, were dependent on their husbands for decision-making, hindering societal progress.<\/p>\n<p>CMD Upendrra Rai raised a pertinent question, \u201cIf half of our population remains paralyzed, devoid of rights, and powerless, how can we as a society thrive?\u201d The Bharat Dialogues program, held on International Women\u2019s Day, saw the presence of distinguished guests, facilitating extensive discussions on women\u2019s empowerment within society.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you have any objection to this press release content, kindly contact pr.error.rectification@gmail.com to notify us.
