Pt Vijay Shankar Mehta Column

Pt. Vijayshankar Mehta

The courtyard in India is a symbol of family togetherness. Writers have called the courtyard the world of women. Tulsi is the queen of the courtyard. Some sages have also given the metaphor of a courtyard to the mind. Tulsidas ji writes – Barni jaai ruchir anganai, jahan khelhin nit chariu bhai. The beautiful courtyard cannot be described, where the four brothers daily play. Kakabhushundi ji is telling this to Garuda ji.

Tulsidas ji is very fond of Shri Ram playing in the courtyard. That is why he had written that quatrain – Mangal Bhavan Amangal Hari. Dravahu Sudsarath Ajir Bihari. O Lord Ram who roams in the courtyard of Dashrath, please come to our courtyard also. The presence of women also changes the culture of the workplace.

Where mothers and sisters work, a courtyard-like atmosphere is created. But in India’s workforce, there are only 10% women as compared to men. Inspired by Aangan, let us resolve to increase the participation of women workforce in the country.
