In Indian culture, a woman is not just an individual but an embodiment of 'Shakti' (power). Honoring the maternal force, which is the root of creation, is a fundamental duty of our Dharma. With this noble vision, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) has been empowering Hindu women through its dedicated women’s wing, 'Tejaswini'. As part of the ongoing Assam tour, the 3rd program was held in Dilkhush, where the Tejaswini (Lakhipur Unit) convention was organized with great spiritual fervor and grandeur.

The event was graced by the National General Secretary of GHHF, Sri Thunuguntla Rajesh, and the Assam State President, Sri Samrat Dutta. Addressing the gathering, Sri Rajesh garu provided a profound perspective on the status of women in Hindu Dharma. "In today's world, 'Bharat Ratna' is considered the highest civilian award. However, in Indian culture, the status of a 'Mother' is an even greater honor," he stated. He further explained that in our tradition, being a mother is not just about giving birth; we bestow the title of 'Mother' upon anything that provides us with immense grace and protection. This is why we revere the cow as 'Go Mata', the holy river as 'Ganga Mata', and the sacred scriptures as 'Gita Mata'. He emphasized that when a woman is rooted in Dharma, the entire family becomes cultured and virtuous. He called upon every mother to become a 'Jijabai', nurturing their children into protectors of Dharma.

The 'Tejaswini' wing goes beyond spiritual discourse by focusing on the financial independence of women. GHHF has already successfully implemented several self-employment initiatives across Assam to help women stand on their own feet. During the convention, it was announced that more innovative projects aimed at women’s empowerment would be launched soon. Currently, Tejaswini is operating robustly through four primary units in Assam: Silchar, Sonai, Kalain, and Lakhipur.

Following the convention, Sri Rajesh held a special meeting with the members of the Lakhipur Unit Committee. He reviewed the ongoing activities of the foundation at the grassroots level and discussed future strategies. Based on local conditions and challenges, he provided guidance on upcoming service activities and discussed ways to further strengthen the movement for Dharma Rakshana and social welfare. The convention successfully reinforced the pivotal role of the 'Tejaswini' wing in safeguarding Hindu heritage while building a self-reliant society.
