Why does one get married? Or, why should one bring a child into this world? Reflecting upon such fundamental questions in a sincere and objective manner helps an adult become more conscious of his or her choices when it comes to entering the householder stage of life. Given the deep significance of parenting on a child’s growth and progress throughout life, this work must be done with a deep awareness and consciously. Only a fully conscious human being can become a conscious parent, so the real work begins by becoming conscious of oneself as an individual, as a human being, as a soul in evolution.
