The paper attempts to analyze the perennial issue of parenthood through a psychoanalyticalperspective, in a mythical context for making it relevant for the present generation which is more inclined towards western cultural values. Myths have been used as a tool by authors to discuss contemporary issues and challenges in society. The representation of child-parent relationships has always been one of the most coveted subjects for writers in general and newage writers in particular. Kahlil Gibran, renowned Lebanese American poet advocates detached individuality in the relationship between parents and children. In this context Shiva Trilogy, one of the most popular works by Amish is relevant to refer to. The psychoanalytical lens probes the conceptual framework of the text for endorsing responsible parenting as a must for rearing children for the greater good of society in general by citing examples from the Shiva Trilogy.Abstract
