gender matched a light in me.
India full of colours which
exhibit all in one call them in some expanses aravanis.
The epic Mahabharat, in
which Aravan, sacrifices himself to stop a war. His last wish to be married was
fulfilled by Shri Krishna, who changed himself to a woman as no one willed to
marry who was doomed to die. Aravan’s story is not forgotten he still lives on & worshiped in their hearts.
The base on which our history sleeps tells us loud n
clear we were always three. Reflections of transgender spirit are ancient and deep.The Mesopotamian chronicles of humanity, Goddess Ninmah from Sumerian, Akkadian fables
1700 BC, Babylonia and many more verify of individuals who performed religious duties as third gender.
The Hindu law, Manu Smriti (c.
200 BC–200 AD) explains the biological origins of three sexes:
"A male child is produced by a greater quantity of male seed, a
female child by the prevalence of the female; if both are equal, a third-sex
child or boy and girl twins are produced; if either are weak or deficient in
quantity, a failure of conception results."
Buddha also showed light on this by codifying four main sex Males, Females, People of
a dual sexual nature and People
of non-normative sexual natures.
Hindu god Shiva is often
represented as Ardhanarisvara, with a dual male and female nature. The sculpture carved in Elephanta Caves near mumbai is still a living example.
At the time of Christ the third-gender predecessors were
clearly evident. Adam was mirrored an androgynous before the split into Eve.
What took us so much time to know or still knowing fail
to understand….?
