Gabhadhana-samskara, the first and most important of all the purificatory processes in the tradition of Sanatana dharma is yet either less prevalent today or almost extinct. Such a sacred practice remains obscure, less propagated and even less understood. The new publication titled, �Garbha?dha?na-samska?ra, The Science of Vedic Family Planning� humbly attempts to fills this gap. The book discusses in detail the importance, goal, definitions, method for fixing a day and time, preparations, vows to be followed, and much more. The stories, appendices and illustrations make the book holistic in its presentation.
