The Status of Women and the Bhaki Movement in India

I choose to stay unmarried, but others will still marry during his lifetime. Nevertheless, the two saints chose the lines of devotion and contributed to the spread of the Bakhti campaign in India. Both of them produced many poems or "abhangas", which are a kind of devout poetry that praises the Hindu god Vitalara, mainly in Marathi. Janabai, born in the 13th century, became the family of the lowest caste Shudras in the village of Maharashtra. When I was young, she began to work as a domestic worker of the family of Damashetto and Gonai.

Bakhti Movement starts with emphasizing God's worship regardless of the status of a person whether it is a priest or an amateur, a male or a female, a higher social status or a lower social status . These movements are concentrated mainly in the form of Vishnu (Rama and Krishna) and Shiva. However, the popularity of the era of Durga is very popular. The most famous believer is the Nayanares of southern India. The southern most popular Shaiva teacher is Basava, while in the north it is Gorakhnath. Female saints such as Akkamadevi, Lalleshvari, Molla

The status of women is constantly changing. The history of women in India is exciting. In the past thousands of years, the status of women in India has changed significantly. In ancient India, women enjoyed the same position as men in every field of life. Works of ancient Indian grammar scholars such as Patanjali and Katyayana pointed out that women received education early in Veda. The poetry of Rigvedic says that these women are mature and married and they can freely choose their opponents in their lives. Rig Veda and Upanishads, the Bible says there are many female saints and prophets like Gari and Maitreyi. STRI Tryambakayajvan's text Dharma Paddhati reflects the role of women and says that "women are ordered to serve their husbands." In some ancient kingdoms in India, the tradition like Nagar Vadhu is the bride of the city. Amrapari is famous for its Nagarbadu. Women compete to win the popular title of "Nagar Vadhu"

Over the past few thousand years there have been many major changes in the status of women in India. In early Vedas, women enjoyed the same status as men. Rigved and Upanishads refer to the names of several female saints and prophets, especially Gargi and Maître. However, the position of women began to worsen around 500 BC, the situation deteriorated by the invasion of the Mughal dynasty and subsequent European invaders. Master gifts Nanak, Jaina, Rajaram, Mohanrai, Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, Pandita Ramabai and other people's campaign gave some relief. The British did not do anything to improve the situation of women. Some law promulgated "Abolition of Satie's practice", "Law of widowed remarriage of 1856" etc. Feminist activity gained momentum in India in the late 1970s. Since that time, many organizations and NGOs have focused on empowerment of women. In India, I am proud that women have acquired a large number of voting rights before the United States and other European countries.
