man and woman in balance is feminism
Woman's duty is to create life, to make beautiful things, and to make things beautiful. She creates what she is. Her duty is to sustain peace, to make order out of chaos, to make resources last a long time, to nurture in various ways, to be a keeper of divine mystery, and to channel sacred energy.
When she is able to do her duties freely, she can do important and specific things for man. She can encourage man, empower man, love man, be a companion to man, give to man, support man, and produce for man.
When man forces woman to do the specific things above, he is abusing her. When he assumes that the specific things above are more important than her duties, he is imbalanced. He automatically fails to fulfill his own duty.
Without man fulfilling his duty, she will do her duty as best she can, but it won’t be optimal. And she will have little space to do those important and specific things for man. Therefore, a man’s duty is extremely crucial to the natural balance of masculine and feminine energy, and to the world.
Man's duty is toward the earth and toward woman. Woman and earth may appear disparate, but really, they are one. What man does to the earth, he also does to woman. Interpersonally, man’s duty is to protect woman, liberate woman, love woman, be a companion to woman, give to woman, support woman, and make way for woman. If he does not do these things, she will do them for herself.
In addition to everything else she does, she will protect herself. She will liberate herself. She will love herself. She will be her own companion. She will give herself what she wants and needs. She will find her own support. She will make her own way.
He should not hate woman for doing for herself what he did not do for her. He should not silence her when she is vocal about what she does for herself. Any resistance to woman doing for herself is actually a resistance to his own nature. Because he did not do it, and he doesn’t want her to do it either.
Man is acting out of integrity when he harms woman, controls woman, hates woman, abandons woman, takes from woman, breaks woman, and makes obstacles for woman. She is not responsible for his ill behavior toward her. Her own abuse is not her fault.
When masculine and feminine are out of balance, man has acted out of integrity. To restore that balance, he must let woman do for herself and observe her. He must consider her fruits and how he can add to them. When he has gathered himself and returned to integrity, he can once again do his duty for woman. When she sees that he is in integrity, she will let him do for her.
Sometimes man thinks he is in integrity, but he is not. He is still abusing woman in subtle ways. Her natural response is to resist. To a man lacking integrity, it may seem that she is fighting him. So he hates her more. But she is only protecting herself, as she should.
Man out of integrity has already caused calamity, war, disease, pollution, disaster and power imbalance. Without her, the civilization would simply collapse. So she must protect herself, even at his expense. Man must return to his inner self, and get himself back into integrity.
When masculine and feminine are balanced, man and woman are happy together. Man does his duty for her with happiness. Woman does her duty for all with joy. Hunger has ended. Slavery is over. Peace is restored. Abundance fills the earth.
Man’s duty is so important that without it, life is very difficult for many people. Man’s lack of integrity hurts men too, and causes a cycle of imbalance. It gets more difficult with each generation of imbalance. Man’s duty is so vital, that without it, woman cannot do her duty properly. Without woman’s duty, society is chaos.
This is how we are all implicated in the same cycle of erosion. We are interrelated. Society is crippled because of the imbalance of masculine and feminine energy. It has caused a disease that has spread the world over, and has manifested as slavery, animal and earth abuse, inequality, racism and sexual violence. This has been happening for thousands of years.
But society is on the cusp of something different. Woman is waking up to the reality of the situation. She cannot allow imbalance to continue. She is resisting the abuse of non-integrity man. Woman is using her voice. She is saying, “no more!” And this voice, this attempt at fulfilling all the duties and protections for herself and the world is what feminism is.
Wise man is hearing this voice of feminism. He is waking up and realizing his duty. He is here to protect her above all else. He is not here to harm her. And the tables are slowly turning. One by one, man is searching himself for truth and returning to his duty. And with each one, healing takes place, and balance is restored in the kingdom.
