  Doer of evil, evil reaps,
  Down is the seed and thou shalt taste
  The fruit thereof. Anguttara Nikaya

• Women have also been systematically been pushed out of spirituality by men. […] Even in the Bhagavad Gita [LoC 910], a book that I revere and respect, it's indicated that even women along with animals are capable of attaining enlightenment. The idea is that to be a woman is a lower birth. But still, all can attain enlightenment if they truly aspire. So even in a high spiritual and philosophical book we see the concept, which is quite ridiculous, that to be a woman is in a lower birth, that to be a woman is is innately wrong in other words. You made a mistake somewhere and that's why you are born in the body of a woman. […] Women are cast into an image. That image is inferiority. Frederick Philip Lenz, III, Ph.D. [Rama] (1950-1998) US American Buddhist spiritual teacher, Insights: Talks on the Nature of Existence, FrederickLenzFoundation.org, 1 of 13 recorded talks, 1983, Why Don't More Women Attain Enlightenment?, minute 41:48, 1:11:32 duration
