Treatment of Women in Ramayana
Sadhguru gets asked about the treatment of women in Ramayana, especially of Sita by Ram. As we enter modern times, people are unlearning a lot of age-old traditions that do not treat women as equals or individuals of their own. Many questions about Rama’s treatment of Sita have also been under question related to the agni pariksha, and banishment in the forest along with others. Modern theories emphasize unlearning some negative age-old practices that are suppressing women in society.
Sadhguru’s views on Rama’s treatment of Sita
Sadhguru expresses his views on Rama’s treatment of Sita. He says that Rama’s ability to bring back Sita from Lanka by going to lengths makes him a righteous husband. However, when asked about the agni pariksha, where Sita had to walk in the fire to prove her chastity, he brushes it off by saying it has been perceived in the wrong way by many. Furthermore, he claims that sending Sita to the forest was the right decision as a king.
