Man and Woman in the Teachings of the Buddha
Category: Women
According to the teachings of the Buddha, there exists no practical difference between the sexes.
Man and woman are equal in their dependence upon each other and in their clinging which must be
overcome (Angutara-Nikaya I,1). Man and woman are equal in the rights and duties of their
partnership, as the Buddha described it for lay followers in the famous sermon to Singalako
(digha-nikayaNo.31). In particular, adultery is as unwholesome for men as it is for women.
The third precept (sila) is the same whether one is a man or a women. By Dr. Hellmuth Hecker.
