HAZEL: "I love not men the less, but women more"

"A woman looks beautiful in all her loving moods, but never more so than when her eyes linger over the movements of her child. God would have been immensely more acceptable and popular if 'HE' had been a 'SHE'; then, no Jesus would have to mount a Cross to remind us whose children we are."

MOTHER'S DAY? WHICH DAY IS NOT? EXISTS THERE A DAY WHEN HER LOVE DOES NOT RUN IN YOUR VEINS?

See Morewere kaali and durga are worshiped , and considered as a goddesses of power.. the women of that would not have been suppressed to that extent where we would have to think about "women empowerment"...its just the human weakness that needs image and idols to believe rather than believing something that is beyond this physical stuff.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................Harcharan Bains @ Shyaml Trivedi: No, I didn't mean it as a gender thing. I merely used the Jesus symbolism to drive him my point that a woman can achieve with compassion what men try to achieve through what most men call "practical power" and what i call " muscle power". Also, if you look closely at all great men , poets and prophets, you will notice a strong feminine streak in them. Jesus is great becasue of his compassion; Guru Gobind Singh not because he was a great soldier but because he was a saint and a poet-visionary first, whose message even after all those bitter wars and sacrifices was "Jin Prem Kio tein he prabh paayo". . You find certain motherly qualities in all great men who have loved humankind and have suffered for its welfarre.Even Napolean Bonaparte, who loved his mother and his lady Josephine like he loved nothing else, had this streak in him. Again that is not about biological feminism but about symbolism of feminism as expressive of certain well defined traits. I am aware that even all women are not paragons of these qualities, but you must also have noticed that we generally speak of such women as devoid of feminine grace or compassion and gentility. Feminism as symbolism is what I am speaking of, and this has nothing do with the bilogical fact of being a man or a woman.But yes, bilogically also , there is one experience that we men can never have; the experience of being a mother. And the psychological implications of this bilogical factor are immense.But Jesus and Kabir and Nanak and Farid arouse feelings in us which are akin to those which our mothers arouse.Incidentally, all Sikh Gurus and many mystics like Bulle Shah and Shekh farid often described themselves as "sohaagan" and "woman in love" and "maidens" and "Mehla" and Kamini etc in thier verses,and God as their male. . Is there any symbolism they are trying to use to convey something that can not be conveyed through ordianry human language. But yes, I am self-confessed lover of womankind and strongly believe that if there were no women in life, this life would hardly be worth living anyway. Call it my icorrigible romanticism, but that is another matter. To misquote Byron, I love not man the less, but woman more.
