John Travolta and Kelly Preston welcomed son Benjamin into the world in November last year. In the first interview since birth, with The Today Show, Kelly speaks about why Ben is their “little miracle” and the wonders of the so-called silent birth.
As it must be widely known, both John and Kelly are Scientologist, which remains, to this day, one of the most popular (in the sense of “with the most followers”) in Hollywood.
Scientologists have firm beliefs like how antidepressants are bad for the spirit and the body, and how diseases are just manifestations onto the body of one’s “bad deeds.”
The silent birth is one way of preventing all this, if you will. Kelly explains that complete silence must be preserved at birth, lest words or sounds imprint on the baby’s psyche, causing “aberrations.”
“Silent birth is basically just no words as much as possible. If you need to moan, if you need to cry out… of course that’s normal. But, it’s just bringing them in, in as peaceful and gentle a way as possible,” Preston explains.
She then goes on to quote from L. Ron Hubbard himself, the sci-fi author who came up with Scientology some decades back – the parent of the cult of sorts.
“Because L. Ron Hubbard found that the single source of aberration of psychosomatic illnesses, stress, fears, worry, things like that have to do with the reactive mind, and in that part of the mind is different words and commands that can come back to affect you later in your life,” the actress says.
All the births so far have been silent, the star suggests. Benjamin is Preston and Travolta’s third child: they also have a daughter together, and a son, Jett, who tragically passed away in 2009.
“My kids have always been amazing. Just very calm, very peaceful, happy and I absolutely know it’s very much because of that,” Preston says of the wonders of this method particular to Scientology.
Below is Kelly Preston in her first interview since giving birth, speaking about baby Benjamin. The silent birth segment comes in at the 3.30-minute mark.
"Because L. Ron Hubbard found that the single source of aberration of psychosomatic illnesses, stress, fears, worry, things like that have to do with the reactive mind, and in that part of the mind is different words and commands that can come back to affect you later in your life” Really? How did he find that out? Did he make it up like he did his entire religion? This article is nauseating. If you want a silent birth because it relaxes you than have at it, but what is said during the birth has absolutely nothing to do with how peaceful your children will be.
