Comment to 'Nature's Menstrual System'
  • With the restatement of the paragraph below along with the answer provided regarding the dieties, the answers I was looking for are mostly satisfied.

    ---------------------

    I omitted/mistated 2 words in this paragraph:Does that need to simply be accepted as a mandate from nature (men not being up to the task)? Are the lack self understanding and awareness that would permit intuiting the need to understand their female counterpart the main issue?

    ---------------------

    What are some differences between understanding women's internal functioning and some spiritual orders that foster harmonizing one's energies in order to make advancement, as it is helpful in overcoming identification with the form?

    Some orders believe the yin and yan need to become harmonized for liberation. Does that come to play here?

      The ying and yang concept is confusing but it is also presented in a simplistic way which is of little use in spiritual life.

      In nature we find that hostility is a recuring force. Disruption recurs. Chaos recurs. Physicists prove that the basis of this is entropy or disorder. Hence to say that order or balance must be everywhere is silly. Suppose you bring something to order, how long will you keep it there?

      Nature eats away at every arrangement humans make. Nature is relentless in this pursuit, to damage whatever is freshly created. We are resigned to disorder but we fight back for the time being, whenever nature has a slot in time, where it relaxes its hold on circumstances for chaos.

      Males cannot harmonize if they are not supported from within. But they can agree to realize their prejudice and hasty conclusions as being incorrect. That may not remove their innate feelings but in another part of the mind, they can decide to go against what their false intuition is telling them,
