Pregnancy Mantra (Garbh Sanskar Mantras): Know the Meaning and Benefits of These Mantras
An ancient Ayurvedic cultural tradition called Garbh Sanskar can be traced back to the Vedas. In contrast to Garbh, Sanskar indicates “morals or values” or “womb.” An approach to pregnancy is known as Garbh Sanskar. A science intended to instruct a child while they are still in the womb.
Each month is believed to be under the influence of a planetary body by the Garbh Sanskar religion. Throughout each month of pregnancy, you must chant the appropriate mantra for the relevant planet.
