Why Gender Equality Stalled

[randomactsofchaos]

“Our goal should be to develop work-life policies that enable people to put their gender values into practice. So let’s stop arguing about the hard choices women must make and help more women and men avoid such hard choices. To do that, we must stop seeing work-family policy as a women’s issue and start seeing it as a human rights issue that affects parents, children, partners, singles and elders. Feminists should certainly support this campaign. But they don’t need to own it.”

"And using modular dynamicism, we can recreate, unfold, resequence, understand and reshape the way we think of thought itself. By constantly monitoring thought itself, it will not only lead you nowhere, it will give you a headache. So try not to do that. Instead try to do something that's way outside of the box. Like some place, if you were able to see how far away from the box you were, you wouldn't be even be able to tell what that box was anymore, compared to the landscape that you're comparing it against. Getting outside of a box is more than getting outside of a box and walking away. As children know, sometimes boxes are very difficult to get out of. Why is it any different for us?"

True waking and true sleeping only the jnani knows. We dream that we are awake, we dream that we are asleep. The three states are only varieties of the dream state. Treating everything as a dream liberates. As long as you give reality to dreams, you are their slave. By imagining that you are born as so-and-so, you become a slave to the so-and-so. The essence of slavery is to imagine yourself to be a process, to have past and future, to have history. In fact, we have no history, we are not a process, we do not develop, nor decay; also see all as a dream and stay out of it.

Ramana Maharshi (via ashramof1)

Son, there are nine things one sees.One sees that everything is empty. One sees that the root is the mind. One sees that the nature is unborn.One sees that one’s situation is unpredictable. One sees that the nature is devoid of true existence.One sees that the natural state does not change.One sees that the-way-it-is is devoid of duality. One sees that the ground nature itself does not tend toward any particular direction. One sees that the fundamental nature is devoid of concepts.
