{"product_id":"empower-women-an-awakening-1","title":"Empower Women : An Awakening","description":"English\u003cbr\u003e120 (3 B\/W Illustrations)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmpower Women is not intended as a book in the ordinary sense. It is rather a measured response to a grave situation in our society today. The increasing practice of sex-selection by killing female infants in the womb is a manifestation of a fundamental flaw in our perception and treatment of women. It is also a manifestation of our blindness to the spiritual foundation and fundamental law of life—the law of karma of cause and effect.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book provokes us to think, to bring our actions in tune with the spiritual and moral obligations we have as members of society. To do this, we need to change our attitudes drastically. The authors have tried to give facts and figures, interspersed with real-life stories and experiences, to impress upon us the need for this change in attitude.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book looks at the role of women in the grand scheme of life and how the present situation is an outcome of centuries of misguided thinking that women are inferior to men. It is equally the outcome of our failure to take responsibility for what we do. So, while the phenomenon of sex selection and female foeticide is recognized in present-day India as wrong, unlawful, immoral, sinful, and nationally unacceptable, no one is ready to take responsibility for the unfolding crisis. It is easy to blame others so that, in the end, no one bears the course. As you sow, so shall you reap. This world is a field of karmas. If we sow seeds of violence, we shall suffer. Responsibility is apportioned by the law of karmic accountability, and in the context of sex selection and the ongoing suffering of women, we are all responsible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTraditional patriarchal practices in India have given us a male-dominated society where it is the man’s perceptions and mindset which lay the foundation.","brand":"bookshop.lol","offers":[{"title":"Thryft - Used (Like New)","offer_id":42495911854158,"sku":"9788182568853","price":4.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Very Good)","offer_id":42495911886926,"sku":"9788182568853","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Good)","offer_id":42495911919694,"sku":"9788182568853","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Thryft - Used (Well Read)","offer_id":42495911952462,"sku":"9788182568853","price":3.9,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/3857\/4926\/files\/68783231_197ca130-f1d5-4465-b838-8ee70f5a2bd2.jpg?v=1747349684","url":"https:\/\/bookshop.lol\/products\/empower-women-an-awakening-1","provider":"bookshop.lol","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
