To call Hinduism patriarchal is to overlook its essence. The scriptures speak of Ardhanarishvara — the divine as half man, half woman — and revere goddesses as forms of ultimate power. The Vedas record the voices of women seers, and the Gita calls the Divine both “mother and father.” The imbalance we see today isn’t from Hindu philosophy — it’s from forgetting its foundation. Hinduism isn’t patriarchal. It’s profoundly equal. #HinduismExplained #EqualityInFaith #BhagavadGita #AncientWisdom #Shak
