The attributes and qualities of glorious womanhood
last updated 13th July 2005
There are many links here, and with much good material that will enable
those of us embodied souls in the various genders to respectfully transcend
mundane misconceptions and adopt the genuine role as portrayed by some
great Vaishnavas and Vaishnavis found in the links. As we are looking for
good tomatoes amid a pile of tomatoes in the marketplace so to speak, we
have come across mushy ones, fury ones, grey hairy ones, down-right slimy
ones and so on. However, as with the contents of some of the articles that
come from non devotional sources, what we are looking for are nice ripe
tomatoes that can have some minor purification done prior to us offering
those fruits to the Lord for His ultimate pleasure. So please bear with
us and try to see the essence in the pages and try to use what we can to
help all devotees appreciate the functionary roles that due to circumstances
we are all bound by.
