Mother - how she can work on the child to be born

08/17/2011

A pregnant mother must become aware of the power she has over her child well before its birth. It is not enough that she already loves the child; she has to learn to make use of the powers of love. While thinking of her child, it is possible for her to send her love all the way to the sublime realms to gather the elements necessary for the child to evolve well and then to instil these into it. How can a mother believe that her own resources will be enough to give her child all it needs, without having to look elsewhere, above, on the spiritual plane? So, now and then, for a few minutes several times a day, she should stand before God in thought and prayer and say to him, ‘Lord, I want this child you are giving me to be your servant. But for that to happen, I need other elements, which are only found in you: please give them to me.’ You will say it isn’t easy to stand before God. Of course it isn’t, but it’s just a manner of speaking. Just by thinking of beauty, light and eternity, that mother will be attracting higher subtle elements and passing them on to her child.
