In response to the right's narrative that women have caused the demise of modern society and therefore it's up to them to fix it:
I'll begin by saying I understand the frustration men have with modern women- their lack of commitment, their promiscuity, their choosing of degenerate partners, and so forth.
But lessons of antiquity can offer us a helpful perspective if we really want to shine light on the origin of these problems.
I would argue that in these times, while it's true that women hardly ever bring a real feminine principle to relationships, neither are men possessing a true masculine spirit. When men do, women will reflect that light.
In the Vedic literature it is mentioned that a sign of degeneration was when women began to breed with men of lower caste (sidenote: I prefer the varna perspective, which I understand to be like caste but earned, rather than merely born into as the modern caste system operates). But we have to ask: how had the solar principle degenerated to lead to this?
Either way, I do not expect any large-scale changes in men or in women in modern times, especially in the West. Because of this, as a female, I choose to develop the solar principle within myself as much as possible, while making sure to also nourish and keep it balanced with the lunar principle inherent to my nature. It is similar to the idea of self-initiation in a time when truly holy and divine gurus and spiritual teachers cannot be found. So, we take on more of the work ourselves, as individuals. Does this have an inherent disability? Yes. But it's the Kali Yuga and we adapt and do what we must. There are forces at play, and those of us who are qualified to identify, absorb, and transform them should do so.
