Garbha sanskara/ Suprajanana/ Monthly regimen for healthy pregnancy *Vd. Sneha H. Kulkarni
Ayurved, the science of life, describes the process of beginning of a new life in great depth. The new entity ‘jeev’ inherits the attributes from mother, father, from the past life karma and from the diet and the daily regimen that the mother follows during the pregnancy . The science speaks of’ Suprajanana’ which means thoughtful efforts taken to inculcate useful positive attributes in the garbha. This involves a complete regimen that leads to a healthy mother and a healthy baby.
Garbha is defined as the union of Shukra (Purusha beej), Artava (Stree beej) and Atma inside the uterus . Beej is defined as the entity which gives origin to a new life similar to itself . The beeja therefore, is responsible for inheritance of maternal & paternal properties. Sanskara refers to the process of modulation or modification of the attributes, in order to reduce the harmful attributes and enhance the useful attributes .
The journey of sanskara starts from the pre-conception phase. This process ensures
1) Pure, good quality Shukra and artava
2) The overall health of the male & female partners including the mental health; especially the female body, the uterus and related organs. (Referred to as Kshetra ).
This is achieved through the following steps in both the partners -
1) Body detoxification measures (Vamana, Virechan,Basti, Uttarbasti)
2) Following stipulated diet and daily regimen
3) Counseling, self motivation and meditation for developing a balanced and satva predominant mind.
The purpose of garbhasanskara, commonly described as “Garbhini paricharya” is as follows:
‘’ tasyam anupaghatay paripurnatvay sukhaprasavay ch” (A. sangraha Sharir teeka)
1) Anupaghata – A regimen that prevents miscarriages and ensures a full term pregnancy
2) Paripoornatvay- A regimen that ensures complete optimum physical growth & mental development of the foetus
3) Sukhaprasavay- A regimen that facilitates the labour
The principle of Garbhasanskara is
“ Garbhasaman yogakshema hi…. (A.Sangraha sha 2/58 )
