NEW DELHI: A Hindu nationalist organisation is promising to help Indian couples conceive "superior" babies with high IQs and fairer skin than their parents, sparking media criticism.
Karishma Mohandas Narwani, head of the Garbh Vigyan Sanskar project, said it advised prospective parents on how to undergo a "purification" process to ensure their babies were born free of all vices.
"We have to ensure the seed is good, which means the quality of the s...m and the o..m has to be top-class," Narwani, a practitioner of Ayurvedic medicine, told AFP on Tuesday.
"If that is taken care of, then the baby will have the desired mental, physical and spiritual quality."
She said couples could produce "superior offspring" by following the organisation’s advice on everything from diet to thinking good thoughts.
"Actually our aim is to produce superior offspring, full of values and culture. The secrets are all there in our ancient Hindu texts," said Narwani.
