"The physiology involved in the formation of human flesh was pre-programmed by the Creator and is quite capable of developing all by itself, without bothering the mother or father with a need to control this process. On the other hand, the psychology and philosophy of birth -- a process on an immeasurably higher level -- is wholly dependent on the mother and father. It is a joint creation by Man and God.

"The appearance of pain at the moment of birth is a sign of an erroneous psychological approach to the birth process on the part of the parents. Many, many animals give birth to their offspring in natural surroundings and none of them perish or experience suffering. Nor did the Creator come up with any thought of pain for His most beloved creation, Man. Just as loving parents would never conjure up the thought of pain for their children.

”As she fulfills her highest purpose… the woman who has carried the Divine Child within herself receives a reward ordained by the Creator. This reward is the feeling of bliss and the chain of joyful ecstasies during labor, but certainly not pain. Quite to the contrary, the process of giving birth …. should be a joyful and pleasant one.

“It is Man himself, deceived by the occult sciences and suggestions from the dark side who by his own intrusion has made childbirth painful for the mother and a fatal shock for the baby… [the baby] gets born, but does not understand why it is being so rudely torn out of its pleasant and perfect Space and why its mother suffers and experiences pain.
The mother’s pain occasions untold mourning on the part of the child.

“…Anesthetics can lessen the mother’s physical pain, but they increase the mental pain for the infant, since anesthetics cut him off from contact with his mother. Such a state instills in him fear and a lack of self-confidence, which continue even into adulthood, even into his most advanced years…

“Few women in today’s world realize that they do not have to frighten their baby – on the contrary, they can caress their child during labor, talk with it, express their thoughts to it, invite it to be born into the world. And this need not be accompanied by any sensation of stress or pain.

“After hearing the call of his mother and father, the child will perceive the labor contractions as a caress – an invitation to make his appearance of his own free will, to explore a world that is brand new to him.

“To be born of his own free will – that is an indication of great and extraordinary significance. All the information imparted by God during a birth like this will be preserved in him.

“When the woman experiences fear over her labor, this fear is felt by the child in the womb.

“When the woman experiences pain from her labor and has thoughts only for herself, the child in the womb experiences double the amount of pain. He feels abandoned, and, above all, helpless and defenseless. Such feelings are harmful, and they are lasting. They wipe out the information the child has earlier received about the grand Creation, since they are in contradiction to it. In this kind of birth, the child feels for the first time in his life that he is not the master of the Universe, but a worthless nonentity, subject to some kind of external forces.

“His body is born, but the spirit of mastery and of a kind creator is not born in him. Such a Man will not become the likeness of the Divine. A mere slave of some other entity he will remain, and he will try his whole lifetime to free himself from slavery…” (Book 8.2., Rites of Love, pp. 160-162)





Peace On Earth Begins With Birth
Elena Tonetti-Vladimirova

The quality of our civilization largely depends on the way we procreate. The way we arrive into this world defines our capacity for love, compassion, intimacy. Conscious conception and birth are an integral part of conscious living.

When parents create a new baby in full awareness of the effect their actions and thoughts have on their unborn child, humankind is given another chance to thrive.

The quality of our life is defined, first of all, by the quality of attention and love received while we are still in our mother's womb!

Secondly, the life is defined by the quality of our birth itself. There is an overwhelming body of evidence that birth trauma is responsible for addictions, violence, low self-esteem, poor problem-solving skills, short attention span and a host of physical health problems...

Non-traumatized babies, who are conceived and born in love, display an amazing degree of intelligence, kindness, common sense and good health.

As they grow they prove them selves to be good communicators, peaceful, caring, alert, self-motivated human beings.

Natural birth does require some preparation nowadays, for attention to the art of birthing has been in decline for many generations. In tribal life it was supposed to be a mother's gift to her daughter, a natural obvious transmission. But with the modern day stress level and easy access to drugs, in the US 95% of births are considered traumatic. 50% rated as moderate trauma, 45% of them are rated as severely traumatic.

Our species has an amazing built-in mechanism for procreation. Our bodies are designed to reproduce naturally, with grace and ease. To be able to relax in a bath tub during labor was found extremely helpful by millions of women. However, water birth by itself does not guarantee the degree of consciousness, of non-trauma, that we desire and deserve. We, as spiritual beings, have the capacity to experience the transformative power of birth that connects us with deeper understanding of life. When a new human being that did not exist before, enters into our world, the veil separating our reality from the Great Unseen becomes very transparent for a short period of time. This gives us an opportunity to experience, first hand, the ecstatic bliss of ONENESS with all, a state in which separation does not exist, where Love prevails.

When Love is an integral part of the birthing field, a woman has access to the power of creation that is working through her. The more power there is in her field the less force she will need to use, because Love is a highly coherent field. And visa versa: the less power she has, the more force it would require to deliver a baby.

In the beginning every one of us was a tiny infant - speechless, vulnerable, in desperate need of love and care.

In our soft, warm hands we are holding the keys to the thriving of our species! We have the capacity to enhance the quality of life in one generation through bringing our loving, conscious awareness into our people-making practices. Birth is a powerful initiation, a rite of passage for all involved, which enables us to create a beautiful Life on this planet. It is our birthright!"
