Significance of Sanskar:
After the completion of three months of
pregnancy, Punsavana Sanskar should be done. Do not be too flawed by delay, but
the benefit of performing this ritual on time is considered very auspicious.
From the third month, both shape and behavioural ethics (sanskar) begin to
catch up in the womb. Indeed, spiritual remedies should be done only on time.
Ironically, understand the significance of the pregnancy and make sure the
developing foetus does not create any hindrance for parents, family and society
and brings in good luck and pride. What should be done for the physical,
intellectual and emotional development of the foetus, these things should be
understood. Atmosphere, food-habits, ethics etc. should be decided in favourable
environment for pregnant women. For the
prevention of pre-existing bad karmas (ethics) and establishing new cultures
for the purpose of redressing the earlier consolation of the organism through
the womb as well as for the development of the sacrament of the organism which
are being transmitted through the womb.

reproduction of the children, and the children should also collect worthy
knowledge and experience. However, the child should also collect the knowledge
and experience that makes them worthy and righteous. Before riding the chariot
or any other vehicle, it is mandatory to collect the necessary information of
its parts. Similarly, it is necessary and extremely important for would-be
parents to have sufficient knowledge and proper understanding of specific
rituals before attaining childhood.
