________________ She was an ardent follower of Lord Mahavir... although a devotee, when she was pregnant with prince Konik, she had this uncontrollable urge to eat her husband's flesh... his heart's flesh was what she desired! Doesn't that seem rather shocking??? Lord Mahavir's devotee with such a vicious desire!!! Does a mother really have control over the child in the womb? A child's thoughts affect the mother and vice-versa. If a child can influence his mother's thoughts, then, why can't a mother's feelings and thoughts affect the child? CRAVING... craving for rain, water and thirst when it was Meghkumar and during Konik's pregnancy, craving for flesh... Be it Meghkumar or Konik, craving has an important role to play. It is quite possible that not all thoughts of a mother will influence the child... but some surely will...! Thoughts that a mother consistently ponders about... ruminates on... will slowly and steadily have an impact on the child. Just as an empty pot gets slowly filled by droplets of water... similarly, a child, at birth, is like an empty pot and the quality of water that fills this pot depends on the mother.
