Child Birth...2

As per SriRamCharitmanas(the story of Prince Ram; the condensed form of Ramayan), it is a very difficult period for a child, which is a living being, for the 9 months when it is in the mother's womb. We must not forget that it is a difficult and crucial time for the mother too. 

This is the time when the soul (within the baby, after the 4th month, more on this later) suffers and understands the agony of being in a closed space, totally dependent on the mother. During this time the soul remembers all the bad deeds that it committed in his/her earlier lives. Just imagine, for a moment that you are kept in a cage and there is nothing through which you can communicate with the outside world. You are given food but still you cannot speak out to anyone and have to be contended with what you have. Such is the state of a child in womb. 

The only thing which can pacify its pain is narration of some spiritual text. For example, the father can read the some text such as the ShreemadBhagwadGeeta to the child till it is in the womb, regularly. Note that the book can be any, depending on the faith you follow (such as The Bible, Qoran, Guru Granth Sahib or Zend Avesta), and it can narrate the speech of the Almighty or stories about the Lord. The point is to develop a spiritual propensity for the child.

This can definitely ease out pains that a child is going through. Now you might ask that what happens to the child's memory after taking birth. Does it not remember the events of previous life after that? Yes it does, but it can't speak, right? Then how will it convey them? Also, as per SriRamCharitmanas, the agony of the birth, which is painful, not only for the mother, but also for the baby, makes the baby forget the previous life events to a good extent. Rest of the memories are washed off by the time child turns 5. Also, there have been extraordinary kids who have narrated things from past lives.

 The point is that, during the gestation period of 280 days approximately, it is the father's and mother's onus to reduce the agony of child and as you would expect, there is just one way to alleviate the pains...remember the Lord.

All the best. From the next post I will start narrating the affects of planets on the child for 9 months.
