Talks & Webinars

Some reflections are best experienced through the written word. Others are better shared through conversation.

Over the years, we have had the opportunity to share our understanding of Conscious Conception, Pregnancy and Parenthood in the light of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo through webinars and public talks.

Each conversation has been different, shaped by the occasion and the people who joined us. But the thought behind all of them remains the same...how can we help future parents look at the beginning of life with greater awareness, and also begin preparing themselves inwardly?



Conscious Conception and Pregnancy: A Personal Journey

21 September 2022

Every journey has a beginning.

Mine began with a simple question: Can the preparation for a child begin long before pregnancy?

Inspired by the writings of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo, and also by the wisdom of Sanatana Dharma, this webinar shares something of my own journey in discovering Conscious Conception.

It looks at conception not only as a biological event, but as the conscious welcoming of a soul, and at the same time the parents, too, can begin preparing themselves inwardly.





Conceive with Awareness: An Approach in The Mother's Light

23 April 2026

The Mother reminds us that preparing for a child begins first within the parents.

This webinar explores her vision of Conscious Conception and the importance she gives to the thoughts, emotions, aspirations and daily life of the parents. All these become part of the atmosphere in which a new life is welcomed.

It is also an invitation to look at parenthood in a deeper way - as a sacred responsibility and as an opportunity to consciously open ourselves to the Divine.

Aspiring for a Brighter Future: Planning for Progeny Consciously

18 July 2026

Every child carries within a unique possibility for the future.

Inspired by Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, this webinar looks at how the future of humanity is also connected with the consciousness of the parents who bring new life into the world.

It asks us to look beyond the usual preparation for having a child and to consider another kind of preparation - the parents' own aspiration, inner growth and way of living.

Welcome to Conceive With Awareness Some questions stay with us.  At first, they may seem simple. But when we stay with them for a while, they can slowly change the way we look at life Who prepares the parents? When a child is expected, there is so much to prepare. We think about medical care, food, the home, clothes, the baby's needs, and eventually education and everything else that comes with bringing up a child. All these preparations are important. They come from love and from our wish to give the child a good beginning in life.  But there is another kind of preparation that we don't often speak about. Do we prepare ourselves? We prepare the body. We prepare the home. We try to prepare the mind. But what about our consciousness? This blog grew out of that question. As we began to explore the writings of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, we found ourselves looking at conception and parenthood in a very different way. Their writings led us to see a child as much more than a bod...

The Soul’s Journey to Birth

Image
“The soul takes birth each time, and each time a mind, life and body are formed out of the materials of universal Nature, according to the soul’s past evolution and its need for the future.” — Sri Aurobindo We usually think of birth as the beginning of a new life. The body has its beginning, and the outer personality will slowly develop. But Sri Aurobindo points to a soul that has already been on a journey. The soul comes into birth carrying what it has gathered through its experiences and its growth. Sri Aurobindo writes: “The soul gathers the essential elements of its experiences in life and makes that its basis of growth in the evolution; when it returns to birth it takes up with its mental, vital, physical sheaths so much of its Karma as is useful to it in the new life for further experience.” “The soul comes into birth for experience, for growth, for evolution till it can bring the Divine into matter. It is the central being that incarnates, not the outer personality — the person...

What Is Conscious Conception?

Image
"The state of consciousness in which the parents are at the moment of conception gives a sort of stamp to the child, which it will reflect throughout its life." -   The Mother There are some moments in life that make us look at things differently. One such moment came unexpectedly while attending a baby shower. The room was alive with joy. Family and friends had gathered to celebrate the arrival of a new life. Tiny clothes were folded with care. Soft toys lay waiting in a beautifully decorated cradle. There was laughter, affectionate teasing, and a steady stream of advice for the young couple. "Take enough rest."  "Eat healthy food."  "Don't miss your medical check-ups."  "Start preparing the baby's room." Every suggestion came from love. Every preparation was important. As we watched the celebrations unfold, a simple question arose within us. Everyone was preparing for the baby. But who prepares the parents?  We prepare the...
