It is more difficult for a woman to follow the Noble Path

The Blessed One said “Amrapali, the mind of woman is easily disturbed and misled. She yields to her desires and surrenders to jealousy more easily than a man. Therefore it is more difficult for a woman to follow the Noble Path.
This is especially true for a young and beautiful woman.  You must step forth toward the Noble Path by overcoming lust and temptation.”
