 This blog is dedicated to expose the lies regarding sati pratha and to prove that sati is not a tradition in Hinduism. Hinduphobics are spreading that Hindu women had to jump in fire. But in scriptures three ways are prescribed for widows. Vidhwavrata Punarvivah Pativrata Pativrata Who is a pativrata? Let's see in scriptures. Brahma Vaivarta Purana Krishna Janma Kanda 83. 120-126 “A chaste woman redeems thousand of her generations. The husband of a chaste woman is relieved of all sins. Because of the performance of the chaste woman, her husband’s sins are washed away. The merit a mendicant achieves by performing Tapas, performing Vratas, fasting by the ascetics and giving away of the charity by donors, the same merit is always achieved by the chaste woman. This is why even lord Narayana, Shiva, Brahma, all other gods and sages are afraid of a chaste woman.

Hello readers! In this blog we will discuss about the condition of women in Vedic period and scriptures. Today many people and sites like truth about Hinduism points some verses of our scripture and spread wrong message through it. I will also respond to them.
