This is a refutation video to one of the points of a book on Women Diksa-Gurus by Kaunteya Prabhu who says that sacred thread was not a fixed part of being a Brahmana in Vedic culture and thus to become Diksa-Guru females do not need to give it to their disciples to make them Brahmanans and thus not having sacred thread is not a hindrance to women becoming diksa-gurus.
The content in this video is taken from a to be published soon book authored by Sridhara Srinivasa Das, and named “Did Srila Prabhupada want female diksa gurus? Eye of the Strom vs Eye of the Sastra” – A refutation of Kaunteya Das’s book with same name. Damodara das has written a Summary to this book and thus made this video also.
