A married lady has many great titles like ‘Dharma patni’ (Righteous wife), ‘Griha-Lakshmi’ (Goddess of the house), ‘lllalu’ (Lady of the house) and ‘Ardhangi’ (equal partner of the husband). These titles have more value than socially recognised titles like ‘Padma Bhushan’ and ‘Padma Vibhushan’ (given by the Government). A lady must look after the home first and then work outside, if necessary. A house without a mother is like an empty choultry. A lady should be an ideal to her children, look after her husband and then do outside work. She can study, get degrees, enter politics or do any other work but she should not neglect the home, which is the very foundation of her life. Husband and wife are both equally responsible for establishing harmony in the home. But times have changed. Womanly ideals are not being practised and there are no ideals being practised and there are no ideal men and women today. That is why the world is in such a sorry state. (SSS Vol.30, p. 138)
