I am Vanita Keswani. Being a CEO in the advertising industry, I have found my soul purpose in healing and transformation of others as my passion area. After 27 years of a love marriage, I took a bold step of moving out of the relationship not only because of negativity, but to fulfil a deeper purpose in my life…. To heal and transform others. I am honored to be an advanced student of world renowned Healer, Dr & Master Zhi Gang Sha, who teaches us - “The purpose of life is to serve.” Women juggle with so much in their lives; I would love to help connect them to their true inner being, their soul, and lead them to inner happiness. I can lead women to bring out their soul potential and heal all aspects of life - physical, mental, emotional, spiritual as well as relationships and finances. Relationships is something that is closer to my heart as I have experienced it myself. Honored to serve ❤️
Hey @Zanzanil What was the status of divorced women in Hinduism? Did they enjoy full rights of freedom or treated differently once they were left or had left their husbands?

In Hinduism, the status of divorced women historically varied depending on cultural and societal norms prevalent in different regions and time periods. While Hindu scriptures and texts do not explicitly address divorce, they do provide some guidance on marital relationships and the treatment of women. In ancient times, divorce was not common in Hindu society, and women were generally expected to remain faithful to their husbands throughout their lives. However, there were provisions for divorce in certain circumstances, such as adultery or abandonment by the husband. The status of divorced women in Hindu society varied. In some cases, divorced women may have faced social stigma or discrimination, as divorce was often seen as a failure and could impact a woman's reputation and social standing. Additionally, divorced women may have faced challenges in terms of economic support and social integration, particularly if they did not have the support of their families or communities.

Hinduism has grown in terms of modernity very much so in my opinion I think now things are allowed which previously were not

I think irrespective of the religion women in every religion more or less are in the same situation. They don't enjoy full freedom rights. some get divorced but some still find it difficult to divorce and continue in an abusive marriage.

Top discussionAny Advocates here? Someone has promised to build me a property on land that's in my name, as compensation for something wrong he did to me.

See AllI am a mother and an educator in charter schools and ABC Youth Foundation. I host several podcast it's a huge passion of mine and I also produce I strongly feel that empathy is the glue of humanity and without it what do we have for understanding one another and being kind toward one another is what keeps Us human it's what makes it work and without it what can possibly get better you must hold on to that and remember and show it where it's needed so that people can know what it is and be able to show that same to others connecting and growing with others is within the foundations of empathy that's how the world gets better so we can understand we don't have to directly know one another we must be that change and it starts with us, we must be the change we want to see!more

200134Women's rights refer to the fundamental rights and freedoms that every woman and girl should have, regardless of their race, age, religion, nationality, or socio-economic status. These rights are based on the principle of gender equality and should apply in all spheres of life, including social, political, and economic domains. Key aspects of women's rights include: 1. **Political Rights:** Women should have the same rights as men to vote, run for political office, and participate in all levels of government. This also includes their right to influence policies and laws that affect their lives. 2. **Economic Rights:** Women should have equal access to employment and fair working conditions. They should receive equal pay for equal work, have the right to own property, and have equal access to economic resources such as education and training. 3. **Social Rights:** Women should have access to all social services, including healthcare and education. This also includes the right to live free from gender-based violence, harassment, and discrimination. 4. **Reproductive Rights:** Women should have the right to control their reproductive health and choices. This includes the right to access contraception, safe and legal abortion, and quality reproductive healthcare. 5. **Legal Rights:** Women should be equal before the law, with the right to sue and be sued, and the right to testify in court. They should also be protected by laws that penalize gender-based violence and discrimination. 6. **Cultural Rights:** Women should have the right to freely participate in the cultural life of their community, and to be free from cultural practices that harm or discriminate against them. Despite significant progress in many parts of the world, women's rights are still violated or neglected in many contexts. Advocacy for women's rights seeks to challenge and change these circumstances, with the aim of achieving equality and justice for all women.more
