Sandy Nixon: Here's another one kind of on that line. How do you feel about women's lib?
Jayatirtha: She wants to know about the women's liberation. What is our feeling about women's liberation.
Prabhupada: That I don't want to discuss because... (laughs) (laughter) They... As you have asked, I may explain that how foolish women are being cheated by the intelligent man. You see.
Woman Devotee: Srila Prabhupada is liberating everybody who chants Hare Krsna.
Prabhupada: They have given. In your country, they have given you liberty. Liberty means equal rights, is it not? Man and woman has got equal rights.
Sandy Nixon: They're trying in this country.
Prabhupada: All right, trying. But you women, you cannot see that this so-called equal right means cheating the woman. Now I say more clearly that a woman and man meets. Now they become lover. Then they have sex, and the woman becomes pregnant, and the man goes away. The simple woman, she has to take charge of the child and beg from government alms, "Please give me money." This is your independence. Do you admit this is independence, that the man makes the woman pregnant and he goes away without any responsibility, and the woman cannot give up the child, she maintains, begging from the government or she tries to kill the child? Do you think it is very good independence? What is your answer?
Woman: To... Whether or not it is good to kill a child? Is that the question?
Prabhupada: Yes, they are killing now, abortion.
Ravindra-svarupa: He wants to know that kind of independence.
Woman: For the child?
Ravindra-svarupa: For the woman.
Prabhupada: For the woman.
Ravindra-svarupa: This is liberation. She has an affair with a man, and she gets pregnant. The man leaves. Then she has to beg alms from the government to support the child...
Prabhupada: Or kill.
Ravindra-svarupa: Or she kills the child. So is that good or bad?
Woman: Well, she has made the choice to have...
Prabhupada: That means, that is 34 ounce. You have made your choice to kill your own child. Is that very good choice?
Sandy Nixon: It's the worst crime you could commit.
Jayatirtha: Her brain is getting larger. (laughter)
Prabhupada: Do you think it is very good business?
Woman: I think this is a very complicated question.
Prabhupada: Therefore I say they are cheating you in the name of independence. That you do not understand. Therefore 34 ounce. They are cheating you, and you are thinking you are independent.
Sandy Nixon: They forget the responsibility that comes with freedom.
Prabhupada: Yes, they do not take the responsibility. They go away. They enjoy and go away. And the woman has to take the responsibility, either kill the child or maintainer, begging. Do you think begging is very good? In India, although they are poverty-stricken, still, they do not remain independent. They remain under the husband, and the husband takes all responsibility. So she has neither to kill the child nor go to beg for maintaining the child. So which is independence? to remain under husband is independence or to become free to be enjoyed by everyone?
Sandy Nixon: That's not where the freedom is anyway.
Prabhupada: So there is no freedom; still, they think that they have freedom. That means under some plea, the men are cheating the women, that's all. So in the name of independence, they have agreed to be cheated by another class. This is the situation.
Sandy Nixon: In spite of that, can women know Krsna as...
Prabhupada: We have no such distinction.
Sandy Nixon: No distinction...
Prabhupada: We give Krsna consciousness both to the woman and man equally. We do not make any such distinction. But to protect them from this exploitation by man, we teach something, that "You do like this. You do like that. You be married. Be settled up. Don't wander independently." We teach them like that. But so far Krsna consciousness is concerned, we equally distribute. There is no such thing that "Oh, you are woman, less intelligent or more intelligent. Therefore you cannot come." We don't say that. We welcome women, men, poor, rich, everyone, because in that platform equality. vidya-vinaya-sampanne brahmane gavi hastini suni caiva svapake ca panditah sama-darsinah We do not refuse anyone. That is equality.

  • i've seen all of your videos and wow....well i dont really know what to say lol he is very very wise.

  • Because a pure devotee like Prabhupada can speak to God directly he must be very wise. Thanks for the nice comment. Much appreciated my friend!

  • Many women are free, independent, single mothers incl. your guru prabhupada is saying that the "foolish woman" is cheated by the "intelligent man". (read, *inferior* women are foolish while *superior* men are intelligent) and that the only way for women to have independence, freedom, is to be 'protected' by man in marriage. pure patriarchy and the reason crimes against women continue and are allowed to continue.

  • Nonsense. You aint understanding the vital role of women in Vedic culture. You are seeing with your rockerfella eyes, Mother.

  • This video makes clear that Prabhupada opposes the diabolical Rockefeller plan to "liberate" (and thus cheapen, tax and oppress women, and control population). Check out what Aaron Russo says on this subject. I (a Catholic Christian) praise God for righteous men like Prabhupada. Send this video to your New-Age-minded, feminist friends. We are all one! We must not fight each other. We must UNITE and CRUSH the Rockefeller scum.

  • Great Comment!

    Hare Krishna.

  • I think we are all being cheated by the corporations and the government. They keep telling their people they are free, have democracy, and prosperity. However, humanity is getting worse everyday, just look at all the problems of the contemporary society.

  • Are you saying that women are not cheated by men? I hope not, because they are. Married women are not exposed to this cheating, however. They are protected by their husbands, as God intended. Crimes against women are not caused by their protection; just the opposite. Unprotected (read unmarried) women are crime victims much more often than married women.

  • He is right, I have let myself become cheated. I also want to say that sometimes men leave their wifes for someone else. Is this wise? Maybe they are also less intelligent. Why do we have to loose our protection from our husbands just because we want to work or vote?
