PITU GOTRA CONTD K RAJARAM IRS 3624 4624 WOMEN BRILLIANTS AS BRAHMINS
We are never bothered about the women except 20% good ones
such as husbands, Fathers, Brothers Thatha. How many leading women who
exhibited the equal talents as men; but have you ever written about them,
their talks, their writings, their skills, their hard work ever in FB, WA,
Media etc? You are all willing to write about some male in the female
Pseudonym but have you ever thought whether that name -lender, really lived
a rightful life and did that writer ever write, my wife was/ is or
will be. Herds’
instinct; would like to get a lot of likes; stay together; even if it is
shallow, like Bhishma, Drona and Kripa calling themselves as ACHARYAS.
Staying with the clan even at the cost of giving up the goodmen; and then
talking tall about the cantankerous society, in which they are the specific
isotopes. So, let’s see some women; they even today might have been spoken
ill, even among us. But they lived and showed their lives.

amongst the temple dancers, the Devadasis, she also worked for the
re-establishment of traditional Indian arts and crafts.She espoused the
cause of Bharata Natyam which was considered a vulgar art. She 'sanitised'

a follower of Dr Annie Besant, Neelakanta Shastri moved to Adyar, Chennai
after retirement, where he built his home near the headquarters of the
Theosophical Society Adyar. It was here that young Rukmini was exposed to
not just theosophical thought, but also to new ideas on culture, theatre,
music, and dance. Her meeting with the prominent British theosophist Dr
George Arundale—a close associate of Annie Besant and later the principal
of the Central Hindu College in Varanasi—led to her building a lasting bond
