Garbhadhana

(Before Conception)


The Garbhadhana samskara is considered to be one of the most important samskaras, as it marks the beginning of the journey of a soul from the spiritual world to the physical world. It is performed to ensure the proper conception and birth of a child.

Garbhadhana is performed before the husband and wife join in the act of impregnation. The purpose is to create a favourable environment for the physical and mental growth of the child, obtain good, healthy and spiritually upright/cultured child or soul to enter the womb. The procedure involved fire yagna (havan) for purification and auspiciousness in every way for the child desired by the couple.

Garbhadhana samskara can help to purify the mind, body, and soul of the parents, and to remove any negative karmas that may have been accumulated in their past lives. It is therefore seen as an important step in the spiritual journey of the couple, as well as in the life of the child that is conceived.
