________________ The choice lies between two kinds of water... polluted water or pure water... from the drainage or from the Ganges...! A mother who sows seeds for good character fills it up with water from the Ganges... crystal clear & pure. A mother who gives little or no importance to character building fills it up with dirty, impure drainage water. For example, during pregnancy, if a mother constantly watches violent scenes on the television, who would be affected? Obviously the child.... That which affects the mere existence... the identity of the mother affects the child...!! What does this mean? Imagine... you are having dinner and have a bowl of kheer (Indian milk dessert) and relishing it with a puri (deepfried whole wheat bread)... Suddenly, you hear a scream... a voice warns you, “this bowl of kheer is contaminated! There was a lizard in it.” What would be your reaction? “What? A lizard!” The word lizard penetrates straight to your soul. When you say the word lizard, your entire existence... emotions... entire identity, gets involved... !!! Similarly, thoughts, actions, incidents, scenes, feelings... those which affect our entire existence should be avoided as it directly disturbs the child... miscarriages oftenPage Navigation
