The elements contained in the composition of the baby developed in various forms, though the origin of all these was the same tiny drop. Veils after veils began to set round which were caused by the effect of the mother’s habits, the father’s thoughts, the type of training and all the external influences which began to display their respective actions. All these influences had a touch of materiality. The multiplicity of actions made him incognisant of all the various changes that he had undergone during his march towards grossness. Now he is so intensely engrossed in it that it defies all efforts to get out of that state of complete grossnes

Later on, it took another turn. He came in touch with the world around and was influenced by the dealings and association of others. The environment caused its own effect. Desires began to creep in and attract his attention. His entire existence being coloured thus, he assumed a changed form and began to attract material for the same. What was he, and what has he now become? The same tiny drop which is now quite out of view? Not only this, but the elements thus introduced went on growing stronger by the effect of his own thoughts. Consequently their action grew still more powerful and intensified, with the result that they began to draw in greater power from the forces of nature. Just as a tiny spring, composed of a few drops of water trickling down from a mountain crevice, flows down in the form of a petty rivulet and goes on swelling by the additional supply of water from the melting snow, or from a tributary stream, till it develops into a huge sea of water, so does a baby attain maturity when the things introduced into him at the primary stage have attained full development

The origin of the ripples present in the water is nothing but the result of the karmas (actions) that had helped him during the course to acquire its final form. These are the waves which are lastly considered to be the waves of joy often misinterpreted as anandam. In a person’s life this phase comes during the period of youth when he is sufficiently coated with contaminations. When one comes into this form, which is the result of all the actions, his state is similar to that of the ocean.
