The founder acarya of ISKCON caused some controversy amongst the media in the USA in the 1960s pointing out that on average, men’s brains are larger than women’s brains.
Recently, studies show that male brains are typically 8-13% larger than female brains . This difference in size is not related to intelligence, as both male and female brains are, of course, similar, and it’s clear ladies and men are as equally intelligent in their own ways and also intelligence differs according to one’s karmic position and of course there are different types of intelligence . The Vedas indicates that the greatest use of intelligence is to have the wisdom and insights to be able to separate consciousness from matter . The objective world of dualism.
It’s the role that ladies play in modern times that have changed from former times . So has much in life and especially the economy. Everything is mighty expensive, and everyone is encouraged to become as rich as possible, and if you want a big house, big car , and big everything else, both mothers and fathers have to work hard . Schools and other educational institutions provide all kinds of directions to children and from an early age .
Ladies in historic times have always played an intelligent and important role in supporting their husbands and children, and they still do. In modern times however Vedic cultures can be and are adapted . The priorities and principles of ladies supporting their men , who do their duties properly, and work hard for the family is a good one, of course . It’s the essential that brings stabilised families that are healthy in body , mind, and spirit. With the mothers spending as much time as possible with their children. The choices are how much money we need , but equally how to give the best of times and security for the family.
So the Vedic life of simple living and high thinking with family orientated traditions and loyalties is good for everyone. Along with automatically further development in one’s consciousness without the hindrance of dealing with broken relationships and all that brings.
Modern life and liberalism can be troubling, especially if it’s centred around the speculations and teaching of Darwinian scientific materialism of one life, one death , so what the hell .
