| 520 | |a This article tries to look at the bhakti concept in terms of its social relevance to women. Both the Bhāgavata Purāna and recorded history (wherever available) have been used as sources of reference. Did 'bhakti' with its message of liberalisation affect in any way the attitudes of society towards its women folk? The answer to that question is not simple. In a sense 'women' did far better in the bhakti milieu but only within the metaphor of what was known as pativratādharma. There are some exceptions to this general description in the lives of women sants belonging to the Varkari tradition of Maharashtra. Some of them like Muktābai and Jānābai even hold their own in a male dominated society. The conclusion drawn is that bhakti, though in a small way, paved the path for equality amongst the sexes, particularly in the medieval period. | ||
