Exploring the Historical Context of Women's Restrictions in Temples

In this chapter, Sadhguru discusses the historical context of certain beliefs and restrictions placed on women's presence in temples and explains why they were once deemed necessary for their safety and well-being. He clarifies that these restrictions were not meant to discriminate against women, but rather to protect them from potential harm, especially during certain times of the month or when occult work was being performed. Sadhguru emphasizes the need to consider the functioning of life forces and the best interests of individuals, rather than simply advocating for social equality without understanding the practical implications.
