It is a very significant story.
At the peak a person is transformed.
But on the path, he may have been a totally different person. Yes, I did say that the path of meditation was for spiritually masculine people. In India, the Buddhists and the Jainas have followed the path of meditation. All the twenty-four Tirthankanars - the great masters of the Jainas - were warriors!
They belonged to the Kshatriya caste!
The caste of the warriors!!
They were not brahmins!!
Buddha himself was not a brahmin!
He was a 'kshatriya', a warrior.
-
These wárriors...
followed the path of meditation.
They were as masculine as possible.
Their whole training was that of the warrior.
But at the ultimate peak...
they certainly were transformed.
They becáme feminine.
