If Hinduism is patriarchal then why does the Devi Suktham glorify women so much? The Shakti Schools in Hinduism worship women, Shakti Schools believe in the Goddess and one of the most important texts in Hinduism, the Rigveda, says that Aditi is God, and says that she is the source of all creation. The Upanishads state that Shakti is the source of all creation. In Hinduism women are seen as the source of all creation as Shakti is in almost every part of Hinduism and is the wife of Vasishta, Agni, Indra, Shiva, Brahma, Vishnu, Krishna, Rama and Ganapati. Devi Durga is the ultimate symbol of Shakti and is one of the most important Goddesses in Hinduism and the Durga Saptashati also glorifies women and talks about the importance of women in society. The Durga Saptashati states that the power of women is in danger because of gender-based violence and that women are the ones who are protecting the universe from gender-based violence. Women are the ones who are protecting the universe from gender-based violence and the Durga Saptashati states that the power of women is in danger because of gender-based violence. Gender-based violence against women, LGBTQ+ people and other marginalized people is a result of patriarchy. Patriarchy is a system in which men dominate women and other marginalized people and gender-based violence is one of the key ways in which patriarchy is maintained. The Durga Saptashati states that gender-based violence is a result of patriarchy. <br><br>The Bhagwad Gita and the Mahabharata declare that women are inferior to men and that women are responsible for gender-based violence. In Hinduism gender-based violence is justified and is glorified. The Manu Smriti states that women should be treated like slaves and says that women are inferior to men. The Vedic texts state that women are inferior to men and the formation of Hinduism was a result of anti-womenism and that religion has been used to create patriarchy. <br><br>If Hinduism is patriarchal then why does the Devi Suktham glorify women so much?
