Happy stable marriages continue to be the most reliable way to bring up happy, healthy, and holy children. For most, starting a relationship is not difficult. The challenge is keeping the relationship uplifting and meaningful for years, and decades. “Marriage is the most difficult of all yoga practices,” says Yogi Bhajan. Every minute of the day one needs to stretch, breathe, focus, and remain conscious. The institution of marriage challenges your total human caliber to befriend your own soul, transforming all of life’s adversities into blessings. This takes solid courage and multi-faceted creativity.

The foundation of a conscious conception is that the man and woman commit themselves to uplift, serve, and honor each other. They also physically healthy, mentally stable, and spiritually aware. The conception should be a conscious decision and both parents agree to take responsibility for the child. No matter what happens in their lives they accept this challenge which is an adventure as well as a thousand-fold blessing.

An attitude of gratitude prevails in their life. Each breath and moment is dedicated to manifesting positive, uplifting energy on the earth. Their dedication to creating a peaceful and secure home keeps their hearts open and offers peace and hope to the future. And through the Creative Force and the unity of their bodies and souls, a body for a being who is a giver, saint or hero can become manifest. With their prayers and actions this being can help to uplift the awareness on this planet through dignity, divinity, and grace.

Yogic teachings encourage a woman very specifically to prepare herself in a holistic manner: body, mind, and spirit. Since she will be the vessel for this being, her entire identity will be serving and nourishing the entire development of this being. “You are giving that child a body, you are giving that child prana (life force), and you can give that child ANY destiny you want. It's a guarantee,” Yogi Bhajan.
