Description
Women are independent and must be responsible for their own Spiritual development. This message is supreme, not only in the Context of Buddhism, but also in the history of world religion. Buddhism is one of the major world religions, and one of its strong characteristics is self-reliance. Buddhism frees itself from Brahmanistic background of its time by breaking from the total belief and dependence of taking the Vedas as the complete and absolute authority. That is why Buddhism was categorized as nastika ("one who denies"), as opposed to other trends of belief and practices of the time that accepted the authority of the Vedas absolute.
