Importance of Gayatri Mantra to Pregnant Mothers - Pregnant Mother In Indian Tradition / Culture.

Special post on Mothers Day.. 

This is a vision to create a sattvik society through the gifts of our ancient Indian and cultural tradition.

It is very very important on how mothers keep their thoughts and actions when they are pregnant.We know from our scriptures that Abhimanyu learnt the secrets of entering the chakravyuh in the Kurushetra war from His father Arjuna who was explaining this secret to his mother when he ( Abhimanyu ) was still in the womb.We also know that Prahlada's mother when pregnant,received through her ears the name of ' Narayana' - thus making Prahlada such a great being and a great devotee of Lord Narayana.

What is uncanny is that modern science today is confirming this.The foetus or child inside the womb listens to whatever the mother hears/speaks and grasps it.

  

  Video above : Showing how a foetus inside the womb can listen to the parents.The foetus claps hands when the parents ask to 

Hence it is very important that pregnant mothers are always in spiritual thoughts and actions.This is how our ancient Indian mothers were made to practice.This is why our Ancient India was in such a high position and glorious.This glory is not really present today .But we can and have to revive it.Let us join hands in this effort ! 

BHARAT MATA KI JAI ! HAIL OUR BHARAT MATA

Mothers are gifted with a powerful strength and power - the power to give life it's form.At such,they are also capable of moulding the nature of the child.
  



 
Mothers should practice chanting and reciting the name of the Lord ( namasmarana ) , engage in service ( at their capability ) , have pure thoughts ( spiritual thoughts ),read spiritual scriptures,eat good sattvik ( pure ,good,healthy vegetarian ) food and never to resort to negative emotions like anger,jealousy,greed etc. 

It is said that the children of teachers are usually bright - due to the reason that they grasp the words of the subjects taught by the mother when the child is inside the womb..So if this simple thing can form such bright children,imagine how much powerful effect we can create by encouraging pregnant mothers to engage themselves into spiritual path.

With this gist , I humbly present a website for powerful chants - that if chanted and listened to often by pregnant mothers ( and anyone at all ) , is sure to give powerful and very beneficial effects to the mother and growing child.They are the Gayatri Mantra and vedic chants ( especially Sri Rudram )

The reason for me being interested in these two chants are that :

(1) The Gayatri mantra is the most powerful mantra.It invokes intellect and intelligence in the person who chants - therefore making the person grow very intelligent.In fact,in Ancient India,children before the age of 7 were initiated to chant the Gayatri Mantra,making them to grow into very bright beings.The Gayatri Mantra is the embodiment of all Gods.So it does not matter on who one worships - anyone can chant the Gayatri .Imagine if mothers chant the Gayatri often - we will nurture genius nature and strong spiritual qualities in the child..The Gayatri Mantra is the mantra for enlightenment..Chanting it 108 times a day will do wonders beyond expectations.It is my wish that everyone chants the Gayatri at least 108 times per day.It will take less than 20 minutes.And importantly,chanting it the correct way.

(2) Vedic chants are sacred mantras that are said to be 'the breath of God'. ( Click here to gain access to vedic chanting learning videos on youtube )

 One famous and encouraged vedic chant is the  Sri Rudram- it is a very powerful vedic chant.It is considered to be the most powerful vedic hymn in fact.Baghwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba has encouraged every individual to chant the vedam especially Sri Rudram.. Listening to the Sri Rudram itself will destroy many problems rooted in people.Imagine the transformation it can bring to a child inside the womb.

Everyone should engage in spirituality..

Remember that our very culture is based on spirituality.Our great heroes were spiritually strong - Swami Vivekananda - the one man army who went and spread the glories of India to the western world , - take Mahatma Gandhi - who created the legacy of liberating a country from invasion by the act of non-violence - NO WAR needed.Ghandi-ji was fond of chanting the name of Lord Rama. 

Real heroes and saviours of the nation are born from spiritual enthusiasm.Mothers play an extremely crucial role to form such children.

SWAMI VIVEKANANDA-WHO SAYS INDIA WILL BE RUINED IF HER SPIRITUALITY IS TAKEN AWAY.

Emphasis the importance of this post to pregnant mothers and children you know off.Cheers.
