Full Video: How should India raise its daughters? || Acharya Prashant, with MMMUT (2023)
Transcript
00:00What is the ideal way for India to raise its daughters?
00:04Garments, even for four-year-old girls, are more expensive than those for four-year-old boys.
00:10It's as if both the parents and the girl are being messaged that the girl's worth lies in her body and therefore her garments.
00:22As long as you are saying, I am raising a daughter, it's a daughter you will raise.
00:26Why must a responsible mother ever introduce lip gloss to her daughter?
00:32Is that not very, very violent of her to introduce the daughter to lip gloss or to costumes that are very feminine?
00:41Learning is the purpose of her life.
00:43Growth is what she is born for.
00:45She does not exist to serve the husband or the kids or somebody else.
00:50Her primary purpose is to serve her own existential internal need.
