Very often we say that we have been taught the wrong way all our lives. That girls should be taught women's arts. And many immediately feel sad, because it seems that borscht and embroidery are all that a woman should be able to do. It turns out that you have to learn to stir food and scrub floors all your life? Is this a women's mission?

Not this way. Not at all. In ancient times, the girl was prepared for marriage, motherhood, teaching women's arts. So that it is multilaterally developed, but at the same time developed in a feminine way. So that she would not be bored with herself, and even more so that her husband would not get bored. In ancient treatises, or rather in the Kama Sutra, you can find a list of 64 arts of Saraswati - and Saraswati is the goddess of wisdom and learning. She mastered all these arts in a few days, and ordinary women need to study a little longer.

As the Kama Sutra says:
“Exalted thanks to the arts of a getter, endowed with a pleasant disposition, beauty and virtues, it is called “ganika” and occupies a high place in the assembly of people. She is always honored by the king and praised by worthy people; it is sought after, visited, seen as a model.

A princess versed in the arts, as well as the daughter of the chief adviser, subjugate her husband to their power - even if he has a thousand women in his harem.

Likewise, being separated from her husband and having fallen into serious disasters, even being in a foreign land, she lives happily thanks to this knowledge.

Prosperity arises from the comprehension of the arts; let them, however, apply them according to the place and time, or not apply them at all.

Imagine the scope for development! And the most interesting thing is that some subjects of modern education are also here - you just need to place the accents differently. If we are already studying mathematics, then we need to train in logic and interesting tasks for ingenuity, and not in integrals and logarithms. If we study chemistry, then make it as applied as possible - chemistry is at home, in the household. The same goes for geography - to study precious stones and metals, to focus on this.

There are also seemingly strange things - the art of war. Why is it? But if you think about it, the strategies of warfare are the same on the battlefield and in the family. Knowing and understanding what is happening and what the consequences may be is important, because in our family we often unfold such battles without realizing it! And besides, a woman who understands this will be able to talk about it with her husband, help him in difficult situations of the outside world with advice ...

And it is important to do needlework and creativity as much as possible. A woman's heart, its essence, is transmitted through the hands. Needlework for a woman is both a way to express her love for loved ones, and psychotherapy at a difficult moment, and a way to divert thoughts, and a way of self-development ... That's how many different needleworks there are!

And if we were taught differently and in a different way, this is not a reason to despair. Now we can begin to improve in what we do not yet know how to do. The spaces are huge, right?

2. Possessing them, a woman increases her vital and spiritual forces a hundredfold, gaining the opportunity
give birth to children with a hundredfold vital and spiritual power - Aristocrats (Aryans a hundredfold).
3. Possessing these arts, it is easier to gain respect, good fame and an honorable place in society.

The Vedas prescribe to a woman the fulfillment of six natural duties, giving her the opportunity to find family happiness:
1. In care - Mother.
2. In work - as a Servant.
3. In perseverance - like the Earth.
4. In beauty - like Lada.
5. In conversation - the Sage.
6. On the matrimonial bed - Witch.
The Vedas warn that a woman who does not fulfill her six natural duties loses contact with the Gods of her Family, the Family of her husband and the Supreme Progenitor. Deprived of this heavenly grace, she hears only the call of her feelings, which throw her from one extreme to another, plunging her from one absurdity to another. Such a woman takes on a well-worn look, trying to hide it under a thick layer of makeup.
A woman who fulfills her six natural duties and masters the 64 arts of the Witch can easily live in health and beauty, please her husband and give birth to children up to a hundred years old, that is, be a full-fledged HUMAN. Can the modern school curriculum compare with the depth and completeness of knowledge given to teenagers in Vedic education? Of course not!

Vedic Old Slavonic tradition. Duties of Husband and Wife

The duties of a husband to his wife are:

*** buy clothes and jewelry,

*** guard,

*** teach,

*** bestow trust,

*** love and gentle words,

*** never upset her.

A man who has managed to win the love of a chaste woman has succeeded in comprehension of the Faith and has all the virtues.

The most valuable thing that a man can give to a woman is his Strength, the image of his Spirit and the image of his Blood. If for a wife her husband is the first man who threw his seed into her, then if he treats her as the mother of his future children, and not as an object of lust, he can give her not only the energy of his seed and the Force necessary for conception and bearing a child, but also to reveal her Feminine Lot. A man, passing on to his wife the image of his Spirit - the qualities of his Life and the image of Blood - the qualities of his Breed, takes her under the protection of his Family, endows her with the Feminine Share - the ability to Love for her husband and children, and reveals her Family Memory - an intuitive insight into the accumulated experience of her and her ancestors in the female line about creating a loving relationship in the family and maintaining harmony in the house.

A person who has reached perfection will help his family - relatives for seven generations forward and backward.

The proverbs of the Russian people say:

A gracious husband always has a wife to spare.

A smart husband's wife is well-groomed, a stupid husband's wife is worn out on weekdays.

Without a husband, a wife is always an orphan.

A wife without a husband is the worst.

Parents take care of their daughter to the crown, and the husband of his wife to the end.

Without a husband, the head is not covered; without a wife the house is not covered.

Husband is honored for reason, wife for mind.

Red pava with a pen, and a wife with a temper!

A bad wife will make you old, a good wife will make you younger.

Whoever has the whitest wife is the sweetest of all.

Children are the grace of God.

Children are good - father, mother's crown,

thin - father, mother end.

What goes around comes around.

Like attracts like.

The apple never falls far from the tree.

Realizing the importance of the well-being of family life, our ancestors clearly defined marital duties.

According to the Vedic order, a woman must perform

SIX RESPONSIBILITIES that ensure marital happiness.

IN CARE - MOTHER. Nowadays, most women regard their husbands as the source of their material wealth and sense gratification. It also means that a wife should treat her husband not consumerly, but disinterestedly - like a mother who gives herself entirely to her child, not seeking to receive anything in return.

Such women are patronized by the goddess Makosh, providing them with family happiness.

IN WORK - A SERVANT. The basic beliefs of the world say that a man and a woman, being originally one, were subsequently separated, and now each of them seeks to find his other half. In the Vedic scriptures, the science of finding this half is given, but the dark forces, interested in the predominance of the impious population, tried to lead people away from this science as well. In our time, meetings of alien halves take place, which either immediately repel each other, as a result of which children grow up as orphans even without wars, or somehow rub against each other, most often vegetating in a gray, hateful life. That is why the union of two native halves is called a wedding, and the meeting of strangers is called a marriage (a good deed will not be called a marriage!). In the modern Christian church, marriage can also be called a wedding.

For his spiritual development, a man must certainly serve his spiritual teacher, but the happiness of having him around all the time is available only to a few. The advantage of a female incarnation lies precisely in the fact that the wife always has her husband by her side, who should be her spiritual teacher. At the same time, the wife, taking on the brunt of family life, is obliged to give her husband the opportunity to have the time necessary for spiritual perfection. It is this selfless activity that is the way of its exaltation and the main advantage over the male incarnation; that is why in the Vedic scriptures a woman is compared to a boat with which a man can cross the ocean of life.

Such women are patronized by Mother Swa - the goddess Tsarasvati (Royal Light), who blesses the light of devotional service to her husband.

The Manu Samhita says that a woman should not be given freedom, but this does not mean that women should be in the position of slaves. They are more like children, they are easily deceived, and if children are not given freedom, this does not mean that they are treated like slaves. At present, most of the people deceived by demons disregard these provisions, believing that women should be given the same rights as men: in no country has such a situation improved the state of society. In fact, women should be taken care of at every step of their lives. In childhood, a woman should be under the protection of her father, in her youth - her husband, and in old age - her adult sons. However, modern civilization has artificially created a new idea of ​​a woman as an independent being, and therefore now the morals of most women are not at a high level. When people in their ignorance do not recognize the prescriptions useful for society, do not follow the experience of the great sages, do not adhere to the Vedic rules, their culture is in a deplorable state.

According to Vedic concepts, a husband leads his wife in the same way as a father leads his children, therefore, from ancient times she was called a follower, and, depending on how she followed her leader, a karmic sentence was drawn up for her behavior. The violation of this charter was called a misdemeanor or a crime, since the violation of the lawful customs of our ancestors seduces a woman from the real path and makes her dissolute, unlucky, lost, lost her way; she is condemned to fornicate on the side, that is, she becomes a stinker.

A woman who is not the guardian of the family hearth loses contact with the Ancestor, for the only way to satisfy the Almighty is by fulfilling her natural duties. Deprived of the grace of Rod, she follows the call of her feelings, which plunge her from one absurdity to another. Such a woman takes on a well-worn look, trying to hide it under a layer of makeup.

Vedic scriptures distinguish 7 types of wives (starting with the worst):

one that is like a murderer;

one who is like a thief;

the one who is like a mistress;

one who is like a mother;

one who is like a sister;

one that is like a friend;

who is like a servant.

IN RESISTANCE - LIKE THE EARTH. As the Earth steadfastly fulfills its purpose in maintaining life, so the wife should be benevolent and calm under any circumstances. If a woman does not show depressingly evil inclinations, if she is prudent and not obstinate, this is quite enough for a man to decide to choose her. He should thank fate if he finds rare talents and spiritual sensitivity in his wife, and not try to meticulously look for flaws. A meek, peaceful disposition is important in a woman, and it is not so surprising to supplement these qualities with external refinement. Mother Earth Cheese herself helps women in this ministry.

IN BEAUTY - LADA. Lada is the goddess of good luck, wealth, prosperity and beauty. This means that the wife should always be attractive to her husband. Unfortunately, modern women consider it in the order of things to remain untidy and irritable in front of their husband, and when they are going to visit, dress up, adorn themselves and put on the guise of cheerful carelessness, courtesy and charm - it turns out that she does not do this for her husband.

People who have a shallow knowledge of the Vedic culture of India are often surprised at the lack of sociability of Aryan women, who seem to be completely unaware of the presence of unfamiliar men. They like to dress beautifully - for their husband. They care for their skin, clean their hair, make eyelids black, put on jewelry - for the husband. Learn to sing and dance - for the husband. And if the husband is alive, healthy and devoted to the family - and this is a rule, exceptions to which are very rare - the woman is happy, she wants nothing more.

Another insidious consequence of civilization is a woman with short hair. Can you imagine an irritable, unbalanced, nervous woman who has a thick braid to the toes? .. Nature does not give anything superfluous. Hair is designed to collect information on a subtle level and accumulate vitality.

All the beliefs of the world advise a woman to have braids, and in public to cover them with a cloth. She is allowed to let her hair down only in front of her husband, since a simple-haired woman, and even more so with a short haircut, absorbs all the vile, lustful thoughts of those around her through her hair. Now women are ordered to cover their heads in Christian churches - from whom are they to defend themselves there? ..

The main task of the female incarnation is to gain attractiveness and the ability to love her husband. First of all - the husband, and children - in the second. If the wife thinks otherwise, she will be forced to suffer herself, and dooms children to suffering.

A modern woman lives in the excitement of obtaining emotional pleasure and therefore earns love from the whole world. The fear of not being loved drives her to do as much good for as many people as possible, and last on the list is often her own husband. To be attractive to a husband, it is enough to have a high level of spiritual and moral development, but to achieve perfection - both in attractiveness and in creating full-fledged offspring, you must have a healthy and beautiful body. According to the Vedic canon of beauty, the length of a female figure stretched to a string is 216 cm (1/216,000 of the circumference of the Earth is called the divine stage). For every 12 signs of the Svarog Circle (zodiac), there are 18 cm of this length. The height of a woman standing on her feet (with her hands down) is 9 signs, or 162 cm. If such a fine woman stands on tiptoe, then the top of her head rises to 173.12 cm, and she will be on a par with a proportionate man. The height of the torso (without head and legs) is 3 characters, that is, 54 cm (108: 2), the length of the arms is 4 characters, that is, 72 cm (precession rate is 1 g in 72 years), the length of the legs is 5 characters, that is 90 cm (360:4), and from the navel to the tips of the fingers and toes - 108 cm each (the number of names of the god Svarog).

The advantage of men is the beard. It serves as an accumulator of spiritual strength, and it is permissible to shave it off only if you are well aware of all the consequences of this rite and use them wisely; otherwise, a man becomes unable to fully perceive neither this world, nor even the beyond. That is why in prisons and in the army they shave their heads, thereby depriving a person of individuality, specialness. In The Source of Eternal Pleasure (ch. 53), Balarama (White Rama), Krishna's elder brother, instructs him: "Cutting a person's hair and shaving off his mustache and beard is almost the same as killing him." That is why Russian peasants in the time of Peter I put together a saying: "Chop off our heads, do not touch our beards." The Word of Wisdom of Magus Velimudra says: “The longer a person’s hair, the more God’s Power he receives, for this Power nourishes the body, Spirit and Soul of a person, and directs him to the creation and deeds of the righteous, in which the measure of everything is Conscience.”

IN TALK - A WISE. The girl is taught before marriage how to be attractive, how to run a household, how to become a perfect wife and mother; the young man devotes this time to spiritual development, serving his spiritual teacher. In family life, a wife becomes a student of her husband and must diligently adopt spiritual knowledge from him, thus becoming a wise, worthy interlocutor over time. The girls studying Vedic wisdom are patronized by the goddess Vesta. Young students are called Vestal Virgins.

IN BED - A WITCH. A witch is a knowing, knowing mother. The words "witch", "sorcerer" came from the Old Russian - "to know", i.e. know. The English word witch, meaning witch, also comes from the Old English semantic root whit, i.e. "to know, to know" (compare Russian - to teach). The conception and birth of a full-fledged offspring is a complex science, so a woman must be a skilled craftswoman in this noble cause, because it is in her natural destiny. But, unfortunately, the true meaning of the concept of "witch" has been perverted.

The goddesses Jiva, Lelya and Rozhana help women conceive and give birth to children.
