Happy Women's Day...

Hari Om, 

A very happy woman’s day, to all the beautiful ladies across the globe.

Recently, I saw that there were bunch of morons spreading abusive content regarding Maa Durga. I was really hurt and pained when I came to understand. My last post had the mention of it.

We belong to Hindustan, my beloved country. Where every woman is Maa Durga’s ansh!  Mine is a proud nation where woman have contributed for the growth and prosperity of the country since ages.

Gargi Vachaknavi a woman of India dated back in 700BC was a Indian Philosopher, she has also written many shlokas in Rigved. Maitreyi was also philosopher in ancient India. Woman behind Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the inspiring Jijaau, she exceptional!, She was the founder of Maratha Empire. Sarojini Naidu the Nightingale of India, the first woman to become the governor of Indian state. Jhansi Ki Rani Laxmibai was the face of rebellion of 1857 to get freedom from British-raj. Aaman Bi a brave freedom fighter who encouraged her sons to fight for the struggle of freedom , Begum Hazrat Mahal who rebelled against British East India Company. Janaki Ammal she was a botanist in the year 1921. Smiriti Irani today’s HRD minister awe inspiring persona who works with dedication and commitment towards our country. There are infinite number of women who have been outstanding, the mentioned are very few and that does not mean that the one not mentioned are any less. Can it be possible for women like them to achieve their respective goals? Yes when they have Maa Durga’s blessings. These women have worked and have been working for our country’s progress with so much selflessness. Aren’t they Maa Durga’s daughters with fierce energy to destroy darkness and bring light in any and every field? Definitely they are!

महा दुर्गेचा विजय असो 


 Its 21st century there is no such difference between men and women! Women stand shoulder to shoulder with men in all professions! True. But her heart is such that she cannot just come home from office throw her shoes and say - chaha banav! or after long days' work when she is just about to sleep if her kids asks her - mom i am again hungry, i want sandwich! She will get up and do that work no matter how tired she is. And it’s not a big deal every woman does that without a finch. That's the difference people! That’s the difference between being a man and being a woman.

No matter who is she be it a homemaker, be it a teacher, be it a business head, or a CEO of a company at heart she is still that caring woman who handles her home. You know friends when i was staying in Mumbai, I had been to Kalaghoda(KG) cultural function, we friends were making a move from KG at around 8.00 pm and just then near Jahangir Art Gallery there was a white car parked and near it was Shobha Dey busy talking over the phone she was instructing probably her maid - "teen roti banao aur aloo ki sabji sahab ke liye, baki ki sabjiyan saf karke fridge mein rakho, aur kitchen platform clean kardena" I was thinking to myself when the ‘Shobha Dey’ is not spared then main kis khet ki mooli hun... this is every woman’s episode and its endless. All that I have to say is women are real karma yogis doing their jobs no matter what! Kudos!!!

Only thing I hope is the future daughters should be as fierce and positive as the earlier ones, with having so much of freedom of speech and so called ideologies they shouldn’t land themselves in ditches which look flowery but gulps them down. Freedom always comes with the great responsibility; only joining the winner’s side won’t give sparks and shines. We must first know what is the winner has won? On whose side is he winning! What will be the consequences! Sure the new generation is smart enough to take advises but they prove so till the end.

  1. Hi Rachana,
    Nicely written and explained. I truly agree and respect to what you said, especially the last paragraph.

    After having a shocking experience in JNU, it has became really-really important for all of us to re-think on which side we are. What our children are thinking and learning!

    Since Hindustan is an emotional country, we had taken for granted that EVERY HINDU loves Hindustan from their soul and ready to fight when situation arises, patriotism is in our blood etc. Sadly, it isn't true at all and JNU students have proved it.

    We must teach our children first to respect and to love our Motherland in ANY SITUATION.
    And no one can do it better than A MOTHER!
    As you mentioned above, Jijau is an example for that. If we can't create a Shivaji in every house, then at least we can try to create a Maavla in every house.

    This surely will have a huge domino effect...
    MAINLY... it will give our soldiers a strong feeling of, we people are really worth for what they are fighting for. And we love this country with the same passion the way they do.
    Outside powers will think hundred times before using our children as weapon to break our country into pieces.
    This respect and love should give every Hindustani individual a feeling that they can participate in their own way to do something best for our people, which ultimately will help to create a stronger and a unite Motherland.

    Happy mother's day to all the Durgas of my country.

  2. Hi Rachana, very well said.. Freedom always comes with the great responsibility; only joining the winner’s side won’t give sparks and shines. We must first know what is the winner has won? On whose side is he winning! What will be the consequences!
    Looking into current affairs of JNU, Honorable HRD Minister Smiritiji has proved that with dedication and commitment towards our country, how a single woman can face opposition and bravely reveal Truth.

    I totally second your opinion that without Ma Durga's blessings it is just impossible for women to achieve their respective goals.

    Happy Woman's day to you Rachana for enlightening youth about real scenario regarding woman empowerment.
