Indian women are considered as a source of power (Shakti) since mythological times. The Hindus worship goddesses as mothers. But in reality, women occupy a back seat to men. Moreover, they are revered as mothers, sisters and other social bondages. The truth is acknowledged by the BhagvadGeeta wherein Lord Krishna describes his manifestation in the feminine quality of Medha or higher intelligence. Women’s minds are essentially steadfast and strong.
