Rupert’s Feminine Influences

A woman expresses concern about the absence of feminine voices in Rupert’s references, noting that she couldn’t find quotes from women or female teachers in his biography. She asks if this exclusion impacts his teaching or understanding. Rupert acknowledges his mother and his companion as his primary teachers and says he doesn’t see any absence of the feminine in his influences. He also says that he never considers gender when choosing quotes. It’s only about whether something is true, regardless of whether it was spoken by a man, a woman, an enlightened being, or even a criminal.
