This article explains how spiritual talks can shape a child before birth. Also, we look at how Gurmeet Ram Rahim’s discourses have influenced some families.

What is prenatal education and pregnancy spirituality?
- Prenatal education means learning before birth. It teaches parents how to care for the baby and mind.
- Pregnancy spirituality means using prayer, meditation, songs, or positive thoughts during pregnancy.
- Unborn development is how the baby grows in the womb. Maternal spirituality is the mother’s inner life and faith during this time.
For example, a mother who sings a calm song every day may feel calm. You can see that calm can reach the baby. Many studies and traditions say calm and love help growth.
Why maternal spirituality matters for unborn development?
- A calm mind helps the body.
- Stress can affect the baby. Calm and faith can lower stress.
- Spiritual actions build connection. This is called prenatal bonding.
Simple benefits:
1. Better mood for the mother.
2. Gentle heart rate for the baby.
3. Stronger bond after birth.
