Various scientific studies have established that a foetus possesses consciousness in the mother’s womb. From sensory perception to human emotion, an unborn child can perceive everything. However, can an unborn child perceive the micro vibrations of mantra sadhana? Can his intelligence and spiritual qualities be enhanced through sadhana during pregnancy?
Shri Paragbhai Shah (MLA of Ghatkopar, Mumbai) and his entire family have been ardent devotees of Param Gurudev for more than 20 years. His son and daughter-in-law, Shri Dhruvi didi Mananbhai Shah, were expecting their first child in 2022. At that time, Param Gurudev had blessed Dhruvi didi with various sadhanas. She would sit in the moonlight and practise mantra sadhanas to nurture the unborn child’s intellect and energies. As per Param Gurudev’s guidance, she had even altered her food pattern and lifestyle habits and refrained from using any gadgets throughout her pregnancy.
At the time of delivery, Param Gurudev had blessed them with his own pachhedi (white robe) enriched with his vibrations, to be used as the first cloth in which the newborn baby would be swaddled. Two Mahasatijis specially visited the hospital to bless the baby. Everyone was eagerly anticipating the baby’s arrival, and soon, they received the news that a beautiful, healthy baby boy was born. Special arrangements were made so that the baby could do Param Gurudev’s darshan via video conferencing. As soon as the baby was blessed with his darshan and he heard the auspicious Manglik sutra, he voluntarily folded his hands and expressed his reverence on the very ninth minute after his birth! Doctors, nurses and the entire family were utterly in awe when they saw this divine occurrence, wondering how this could be possible. But this was only the beginning.
A day later, Param Gurudev himself visited the hospital to bless the baby. With a deep brahmanaad and a gentle voice, he said to the baby, “Please lift your feet, I wish to see the symbols on them.” Everyone wondered, how can a day-old baby understand anything? Paragbhai’s wife, Mansi didi, went ahead to lift his feet. But to her surprise, before she could do anything, the infant baby lifted his feet on his own and kept them in the air till Param Gurudev finished analysing them. The family was overwhelmed with these occurrences, but Param Gurudev only smiled, his hands heartily showering blessings on a soul that would one day become a torchbearer of truth for countless souls in this world. He blessed him with the name ‘Arhan’.
Since his birth, Baby Arhan has been a prodigy itself. Param Gurudev had once hinted that this baby would never cry or make a fuss. The family did not believe it initially, but he turned 1 in April 2024, and has never become cranky to date. He has never even fallen ill with any infanthood diseases. Param Gurudev’s profound sadhana energy, which nurtured his consciousness in the womb, continues to enhance his innermost capabilities at every step even today.
