I Was Born In A University Campus

I Think Gender Inequality Is A Problem That Goes Back A Long, Long Time. In Human Society, As A Whole, Women Have Tended To Have A Kind Of Inferior Position - Very Often Combined With Playing Up Women As Great Role [models].

I Don't Think Poverty Provides That Much Of An Obstacle To Education As One Thinks. I Think The Bigger Obstacle To Education Is The Fact That It's A Very Hard Thing To Do For A First-generation Schoolgoer. Because Not To Have Parents At Home Who Can Help You, Motivate You, Is A Problem Even When The Parents Are In The Abstract Very Keen On Children Being Educated.

In India, [in] The Great Documents Like [the] Upanishads In Eighth Century B.c., You Find Some Of The Wisest [women] Making Great, Learned Speeches And Then You Worship Them, But Actually Don't Do Very Much About Girls' Education Generally. So I Think There Has Been A Kind Of Dual Presence Of Pain, Respect, And Saying You Are Great, Etc., But Not Providing The Basic Facilities That Make Women Able To Lead The Kind Of Life That They Would Like To And That Men Easily Do.

Education Could Be A Great Vehicle For Gender Equity. It Allows People To See What Your Rights Are By Reading. Quite Often Women, For Example, May Have Rights That They Are Not In The Position To Actually Make Use Of.

Unceasing Change Turns The Wheel Of Life, And So Reality Is Shown In All It's Many Forms. Dwell Peacefully As Change Itself Liberates All Suffering Sentient Beings And Brings Them Great Joy.
