Transcript

00:00Doordarshan used to broadcast the Republic Day Parade and I used to wonder that man is okay

00:05but why are my armed forces saluting that woman? What has that woman done? And sometimes it would

00:10be a woman on the dais, the president of a country and her husband would be standing next to her.

00:14We believe it is normal you know. Man and woman they are together, they are one unit. If they

00:18are one unit and the man is a PhD then you start calling the woman also as doctor. Do you do that?

00:23This association that man is incomplete without a woman and woman is incomplete without a man

00:29is false, false and false. Why don't you understand this? Yes we are incomplete but that incompleteness

00:35cannot be filled by a person of the opposite gender. Our incompleteness is spiritual and we

00:41need great purposes and great ideals in life to get rid of our incompleteness.
