The soul has no gender. It is the line of evolution it chooses in its journey through nature. In Nature we see the feminine and masculine elements, characterised by dynamic and passive, earth-bound and skyward, intuitive and analytical, inner power and hard strength, creative and ideative, nourishing love and nurturing care, in short, qualities of the right and the left brain, power and knowledge, the heart and the head respectively. The biological differences between the genders are not the main thing. That is only a physical device for the purpose of progeny. But the real essence is the two lines of nature’s play that one finds everywhere. It is difficult to develop both together in the same mould, hence for a long time, Nature allows this arrangement until we discover their essential unity and truth.
Affectionately,
