Women have both gentleness and strength. Indian scriptures recognise the tremendous amount of power in women. In fact, the primordial energy known as shakti, the life force behind entire creation, is feminine. That is why our scriptures honour women as the highest aspect of divinity – the Aadhya Shakti.

Women possess the ability to create as well as make a difference in society. Women bring us to the planet and teach us to live. Our mother is our first guru, our first teacher. Women teach us the very first lessons in good conduct. They direct our very first steps in life. Women are strong peacemakers at home, in the community, in society and the world. Women provide the glue that can bring people of diverse natures together. They do it in their homes all the time!

In this fast-paced life, we need to balance our inner peace, beauty and ethical values with the external challenges we face. Women have it in them to make this happen because these qualities are inherent in women.

	Women of the world, you can instil love, compassion, spirituality in people around you and in society.

A woman has the capacity to be an excellent peacemaker because it is natural for her to relate from the heart. Her biggest strength are her emotions, her feelings, her motivation and inspiration. Men inspire others to fight but women inspire to unite. There are more wars in the world today because there is a lack of feminine leadership that seeks to unite people, overcome differences and bring home to us the purpose we are all born for! In today’s war-torn world, we need women to come to the forefront and take more responsibility, without getting stressed. When women are determined, they can achieve wonders.

Empower Women

We need to ensure that women in our country are literate. When women are well educated and well-informed they can take on more responsibility, bring about positive change and make any project successful.

A woman is multi-talented and multi-faceted by nature. Usually, people think women are emotional but the fact is, women are also great intellectual geniuses and excel in planning and execution. You see any department headed by a woman; chances are that department is ahead of those that are managed by men.

Women are the backbone of every society. The role of women in the development of a society is of utmost importance. In fact, it is the only criterion that determines whether a society is strong and harmonious or not. Also, a corruption-free society can only emerge where women are given due regard, respect and importance. In building character and integrity, women do a better job than men.

It is very important for women all around the world to sit together and see what they can do to make this world more stress- and violence-free. Women of the world, you are that spirit. You are the ones who can instil love, compassion, spirituality in people around you and in society.

Do not wait to be given power. Just assume it. You are born leaders. You have the potential within you to bring prosperity, happiness and joy to this world! Just make this happen!
