| 520 | |a Women have long been excluded from public sectors of society such as religion, war, and politics. In ancient India, the dharma of women completely surrounded their undying devotion to their husbands and their ability to bear children. However, the Mahabharata and the Bhagavad Gita, women took on roles and opportunities that were contrary to the traditional feminine roles that had been established in the past. The women of the Mahabharata often displayed strong and daring characteristics, showing their influence on matters both in the public and private realms of society. This strong female presence is reaffirmed in the Bhagavad Gita in which the teaching include women and members of lower castes, often portraying views that are transcendent of gender and many other empirical conditions. The transcendent views that serve as the foundation for all of the Gita's teachings remain consistent on the issue of gender. In the Bhagavad Gita and the Mahabharata, women are regarded as beings both capable of influencing events in the empirical world as well as attaining liberation in the transcendental world of Brahman. | ||
