स्त्रीयः पूज्या विधानेन वैष्णप्यो वैष्णवाश्रयाः ।
न हि साधारणि सृष्यिर्वैष्णवीति विचिन्तयेत् ॥ १२७ ॥

Note! The following is not a translation of the above verse, but merely an arbitrary extract of the English text.

Women are to be worshiped according to the prescribed rituals and are Vaiṣṇavas who take refuge in Vaiṣṇavas. One should not think that the ordinary creation is Vaiṣṇava.
