In the life of that person who honours his elders, prosperity will always rest. Secondly, where the women of the house are treated with reverence, where they are put upon the pedestal which they deserve, there is prosperity. It is the Supreme Mother who is the very source of the whole universe, and where the mothers, the women, are treated with reverence that is due to them, in that house, there is prosperity. And where women are treated with disrespect, unkindness, harshness, prosperity cannot come. Prosperity does not abide in that house where the wife and the mother are made to weep, where tears of women fall.
Prosperity takes wings and flies away from that house where woman weeps.
Thirdly, for the womanfolk themselves, modesty is the magnet of prosperity. For a woman, modesty is the highest ornament. The ornament of a woman, the beauty of a lady, is not in the jewellery she wears or in the type of material or the dress she wears - no, that is not beauty. The moment you take leave of the body, it is just a useless thing here. So the true beauty and grace of a woman is modesty.
