I
find the fuss about genders very shallow. I mean, so... there are women and
there are men. I may as well be saying, there are lions and deer’s, or roses
and lilies. All creations of the Almighty.
Don't
you think all this fuss is that of just being unable to accept that creation is
made up of various forms, humans, animals and birds, nature, the flora fauna?
We fail to see the unified field behind the various forms. Our main but
invisible link. Unfortunately, we are very focused merely on the apparent and
visible differences of forms. Like, when we are so engrossed in a movie, we
fail to see the steady and unmoving screen on which the movie is being
projected. Without which there would be no movie at all.
The
actual consciousness of being a particular gender or the obsession with this
has a very valid reason. We don't remember but we have had different gender
roles in our past lives and the memory of this resides in our subconscious.
Sometime or other, our personalities may come alive within us when triggers
happen. The truth is, we are both female and male inside us. But we deny it
while role playing. We are not comfortable in our skin perhaps. Coupled with
this is our mind conditioning, of playing gender based roles.
It’s
only when we connect on the level of faith and love and equality that we can
start respecting all life on this earth. Instead of being intolerant and
separatist based on personal preferences. Only then will the social evils that
we see in our society today will be a thing of the past.
