" We stand to crate a powerful, dynamic and up surging
social consciousness, especially amongst women, so that they
are inspired to rise, awake, abolish dogma and annihilate
all symbols of slavery and usher in a new era of coordinate
cooperation and glorious achievement.
Let women be the vanguard of a new revolution which humanity
must achieve for a glorious tomorrow." -- Shrii P. R.
Sarkar

"You as the most dignified section of human society
do something for the universal human beings.
Why dignified?
When people come in contact with a
particular human being whose life has been elevated because
of her or his movement towards the Supreme, then others look
upon her or him as a sanctified being.
. And when, from that sanctified entity, or from that
sanctified being, they get selfless service, then that sanctified
being not only remains sanctified but becomes dignified too.
" -- Shrii P. R. Sarkar

The Kaeshik Characteristic - a special quality in women
"The word kaeshik means an external expression of anger,
shame, hatred, compassion, love, affection, attraction, repulsion,
etc., to an extreme degree. People cry out in their extreme
joy; they cannot contain their happiness within the narrow
confines of their nerves. And in the case of hatred, even
if they do not want to express it openly, neither can they
keep it suppressed. People cannot suppress their overflowing
emotions of love, affection, compassion, etc., nor keep them
under control; they must give vent to their feelings. Later
they may regret what they said; they will feel that it was
not right to express their innermost feelings. This expression
of sentimentality varies from creature to creature, from human
to human, from one class to another, and from one sentimental
group to another. The general term for this expression of
sentimentality is kaeshik. Under the spell of kaeshik, one
may commit suicide. People climb the highest mountain summits,
sail into the blue void and touch the inaccessible poles,
goaded by this kaeshik propensity.
We hear about a marine creature called a mermaid, or matsyakanya'
[dugong] that lives in some parts of the world. Below the
navel it resembles a fish, while on the upper part are flippers;
its face resembles a sea lion's. As it is a mammal, it has
teats, in the area above the navel. This creature sometimes
rises out of the water for a short time showing its upper
body but keeping the lower portion underwater; and then again
dives deep into the sea. If one sees from a distance only
its upper body and its teats, one may mistake it for a human
girl. In fact it is a water mammal like a whale or a sea lion.
It is said that mermaids are remarkable for their extreme
sentimentality. I remember many years ago some villagers in
eastern Indonesia killed a mermaid. Mermaids do not have the
strength or intellectual capacity to fight against humans.
Many mermaids, about fifty or sixty came out of the water
and flipped themselves up on the beaches and, because they
are water creatures, died as soon as they came ashore. The
local people believed that they committed collective suicide
to lament in a mute protest against human atrocities because
an innocent member of the mermaid community was killed.
The kaeshik propensity is more manifest in women than in
men. There is a greater degree of sentimentality in women.
Consequently, women can perform extraordinary feats that men
cannot. Had these potentialities been harnessed for constructive
activities, there would have been many benefits for the world,
but as this aspect of women's psychology is not known, society
could not utilize their potential fully. - Shrii P. R. Sarkar
