Spiritual nature Quote by Paramahansa Yogananda
““Man should strive to see the God in woman, and to help her realize her spiritual nature. He should make her feel that she is with him not merely to satisfy his sensual appetites, but as a companion whom he respects and regards as an expression of the Divine. And woman should look upon man in the same way.””
