International Women’s Day    (08 March every year)

International Women’s Day is celebrated on 8th March every year throughout the whole world. So, today (08-03-2026) is International Women’s Day. We are required to think pertaining to the characteristics of the International Women’s Day. Women have possessed many qualities such as softness, patience, tolerance, sweet language, sense of humanity, confidence, loyalty, supportiveness, kindness, creativity, integrity, intelligence, compassion, love and affection, honesty, hardwork etc whereas men have comparatively less of qualities. Besides, women are mothers.

In this regard, there is the most valuable advice of Sri Sri Ram Thakur wherein He says, “Know your Mother who has held the Whole Universe. The word Mother  is very rare. If anyone is charmed in the word of Mother, there is no prayer and nothing is required to him/her as Mother is always fulfilling  everything to you. Mother has possessed all qualities like the Supreme Power, the greatest affection , endless Prem  Bhander etc. This is called The Truth.” 

So, we should respect women as embodiment (Matri swarup). On the other hand, women are the backbone of the Nation. Development of a nation depends on the achievement of women. So, it is the moral duty of men to save our women always as and when women are in trouble. Then the grand success of a nation is inevitable.

Warm regards and pranam to all.

Pradyot Kumar Bhowmik (Chandan Bhowmik), Secretary, Sri Sri Ram Thakur Ashram, Haridwar.
