With the participation of these six Bhavas, a body of child is formed. There are six types of Bhavas (features) that contribute to the formation of the embryo. This concept makes the basis of Garbh Sanskar. For instance, there is a significant effect of the hormonal secretions that are activated by the thoughts of a mother on the unborn baby (10). Traditionally, i t is believed that a child's mental and behavioral development starts in the womb from the day of conception as it can be influenced by mother's physical, mental and emotional state.ĭoctors and experts also believe that a child resembles his parents because of heredity (transfer of genes from parents to child), but it is also well known that environment, behavior and lifestyle also plays a very important role in the physical and mental characteristics of child. Thus, Garbh sanskar is educating the mind of unborn baby. The word "Garbh" means "fetus in womb" and " sanskar" means "education of the mind". The knowledge of this sanskar dates back to ancient scriptures. Hence it is duty of every parent to make every effort to inculcate good values and virtues in their children. That’s why we need to cultivate good values and virtues. It pollutes the core values of humanity and destroys its social fabric. It is believed that “the hand that rocks the cradle, rules the world”.Ģ. Bad progeny dangerously damages the families as well as the society at large.

G arbh Sanskara is a process for getting desired designer baby. Garbh sanskar is known to be significantly effective for reducing stress scores, coping and well being of antenatal mothers (61). Basically, it is done to gently stimulate baby's senses to maximize the cortical development (62). It also helps in making a stronger bond between mother and child. This leads to beautiful, healthy, smart and socially active progeny with longevity. Garbh Sanskar is performed to introduce good values (sanskars) in the fetus. This covers pre-pregnancy, pregnancy, as well as breast-feeding phase guiding parents until the child is about two years old. Today, I am going to talk about Garbh sanskar. I have discussed about science behind performing pre-natal (Garbhadhana to Simantonayan) and post-natal (Jaatkarma to Mundan) sanskar in my previous blogs.
