Gyan birag jog biggyana

Chaupai 8, Under Doha 115 · Uttar Kand

Chaupai Text

ग्यान बिराग जोग बिग्याना। ए सब पुरुष सुनहु हरिजाना॥ पुरुष प्रताप प्रबल सब भाँती। अबला अबल सहज जड़ जाती॥ ८ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

gyāna birāga joga bigyānā। e saba puruṣa sunahu harijānā॥ puruṣa pratāpa prabala saba bhāṃtī। abalā abala sahaja jaḍa jātī॥ 8 ॥

Meaning

O devotees of Hari, listen: knowledge, dispassion, yoga, and wisdom—these are all 'male' powers; man's potency is strong in every way. The feminine power is naturally weak and, by birth itself, inert.
