Ladies should not accept any asrama other than the grhastha-asrama, and in particular cases, the vanaprastha-asrama.
If any extraordinarily powerful woman becomes successful by accepting the brahmacari or sannyasa-asrama with the help of her education, religiosity, and other abilities, it should not be seen as a prescription for ordinary women whose faith, bodies, and intelligences are shaky, soft, and immature.
