GIRLS SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN AS INFERIOR
ADRESSING 'PRABHU' MEANS YOU ARE MY MASTER
EVERYONE SHALL TREAT OTHERS AS 'MY MASTER*
"Now another thing, that girls should not be taken as inferior.
You see? Sometimes... Of course, sometimes scripture we say that "Woman is the cause of bondage."
So that should not be, I mean to say, aggravated. [laughs]
That should not be aggravated, that "Woman is inferior," or something like that.
So the girls who come, you should treat them nicely, at least.
I heard that Gargamuni, after his wife left him, he became a woman-hater like that. [chuckles] That is not good. You see? Yes.
After all, anyone who is coming to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, man or woman, boys or girls, they are welcome.
They are very fortunate. You see.
And the idea of addressing "prabhu" means "you are my master." That is the... Prabhu means master.
And "Prabhupāda" means many masters who bows down at his lotus feet.
That is Prabhupāda. So each, everyone shall treat others as "my master."
This is the Vaiṣṇava system."
Srila Prabhupada, 24th September, 1968
